I have followed Cyclone power for a couple of years off and on since they won a prize for best something or other in Popular Science. They seem to go on and on without delivering any product, and just when people start wondering if they will deliver, they change their story about what they are delivering, reset the clock, and go on and on talking about the new thing they will never get around to delivering. I see from this that they have changed their story again.

I have concluded a long time ago that this is just a scam company that sells endless shares to gullible investors. I wouldn't put any stock into any press release they release.

Do you have links to the history, so that FReepers will be informed?

Does this company have independent testing results?

I have seen this behavior in the civil aeronautics community. There are guys who publish and sell ONLY plans. No one knows who’s built the actual airplane.

And there are guys like Jim Bede who actually printed plans, built the airplane, and went into volume production on the promise that there would be a corresponding power plant, which never came to fruition.

And there are guys like Burt Rutan, who changed the face of the industry, even building an airplane that flew around the world on one tank of gas... but he isn’t a billionaire industrialist, as one would expect.

It seems Cyclone has not produced a single commercial device to date which means no product, no sales, no customers...sounds familiar.
