- Less efficient than reciprocating engines at idle speed
- Longer startup than reciprocating engines
- Less responsive to changes in power demand compared with reciprocating engines

Translated to a loud jet engine larger than that on planes, sitting on the Chrysler Site running 24/7…. once it gets turned on, it stays on until it breaks down.
Remember those sissy’s who lived in Brandywine Hundred who were always bitchin’ bout those planes coming into Philadelphia International? At least they got breaks between planes…..
