CAFE est l’acronyme de  Comparative Aircraft Flight Efficiency

Report and Summary

Aircraft Exhaust Systems IV This report summarizes 16 months of study into the improvement of the efficiency, power and reliability of light aircraft exhaust systems.

The EPG and Aircraft Exhaust Systems CAFE studies in to the development of an Exhaust Pressure Graph.

EPG II CAFE looks at some specific exhaust designs

Fuel Handling Safety CAFE’s fuel handling report arose from our own routine handling of aircraft fuel. This report was a study into the dangers of fuel ignition by a static electric charge due to re-fueling via portable containers.
