Jetex 100



The Jetex 100 was one of the first to be marketed by Wilmot Mansour. It had three helical springs to act as a safety valve.

Rated equivalent to a 0.3 cc diesel, its end surge could give up to 1½ oz - 1¾ oz of thrust.

There were two derivatives. The original drawn case later gave way to a turned version. Eventually, and despite its popularity, this version was eventually replaced by the Jetmaster.
