PM is in Vegas this morning. She has the "Ferry Engine" according to the website but she climbed out at 5280 FPM according to the tower in Dallas. According to the website they installed the old "Miss Budweiser" engine and it failed.
So ....... Not sure what class they are trying for.

Looks like a Martin-Baker MB5 with the contra-rotating props.

A mile a minute - must have been a one hell an angle of attack!

I hope nobody went to Vegas to see this. I just wasn't thinking that day.
