That's correct Bill,

A gas turbine producing thrust via a propeller is a turbo prop. A turbo jet 
uses a Newtonian reaction from exhaust gases for thrust.

Subject:KR> Jet vs Turbo prop?

Ok guys.. now I am a little confused..

I am new at this game, I just finished my ground school and going over my class 
work we went thru power plants for air craft.

The picture that I saw of the KR was a gas turbine with a prop on it.. Yes?

So, correct me if I am wrong, that would indicate that it is a turbo prop? 
Correct?

Otherwise, if it was a jet, it would use exhaust thrust out the rear and 
wouldn't have a prop? Correct?

Bill





jet engine
