I don't know about burning H2O2 in a jet engine with JP-4 as being different than a monopropellant.   Blast propagation can flash back through the fuel lines to the fuel tank.   BOOM!  :eek:  ::) :'(   This was seriously considered an *issue* by Clark in his definitive book, Ignition!.

      (I downloaded most of the page and I think the author of that post is WAY overstating 1) his ability to procure the necessary materials to succeed in what he desires to do and 2) that his homemade craft has the required mass ratio to achieve orbit---about 30,000 ft/sec.)

      He needs something like beta-titanium and concentrated H2O2.  That's something Homeland Security will want to talk to him about.
