The Letter of Marque
Dan Fancy and Scott Bailey, former U.S. Naval aviators, find themselves and their wives working for Southern Air Transport in the Caribbean, on the island of St. Barts.

Ceramic Materials and Components for Engines
Several ceramic parts have already proven their suitability for serial application in automobile engines in very impressive ways, especially in Japan, the USA and in Germany. However, there is still a lack of economical quality assurance concepts. Recently, a new generation of ceramic components, for the use in energy, transportation and environment systems, has been developed. The efforts are more and more system oriented in this field. The only possibility to manage this complex issue in the future will be interdisciplinary cooperation. Chemists, physicists, material scientists, process engineers, mechanical engineers and engine manufacturers will have to cooperate in a more intensive way ...
