Oak Ridge National Laboratories actually built a five-megawatt test reactor using the LFTR design back in the 1960’s and successfully ran the reactor non-stop for five years without any problems. Indeed, the reactor was an outgrowth of the original program to put a nuclear reactor inside an airplane! They needed a reactor that was close to meltdown-proof, and the LFTR was the result.

Thanks for the history bite on Thorium reactors. That's one of the most promising technologies I've ever seen, and it's not pie-in-the-sky.
