Interesting Videos and Subjet Matter

The following is an excellent animation for how a gas turbine engine functions, using a large jet engine as an example.
The second video is of the NOTAR (no tail rotor) Hughes MD 500 helicopter.  With no tail rotor, this aircraft uses ducted exhaust and airflow out of the tail boom for directional control and to counteract torque from the main rotor.
The third video is about the history of the unducted turbofan engine from the company General Electric.  The idea and design of the unducted jet engine was a proven concept, but market forces stopped its implementation.  The technological gains made by the company were spun off into the GEnx version of its' turbofan line.
