Synopsis "Tom Swift and His QuieTurbine SkyLiner"

In this second adventure of the new series, young inventor Tom Swift is approached by the airline industry. They have a big problem... well, two problems. First, as people build closer and closer to airports, noise complaints continue to grow. And, rather than tell people to stop moving next to busy airports, several state governments have demanded that additional steps be taken to reduce noise. But, about every possible step has already been instituted. They need Tom's help.The other problem is the soaring price of fuel. So, is there any way Tom can also make jet engines more efficient? Again, just about everything has been done toward that.Design after design and test after test prove insufficient to meet one or the other requirement, and definitely not both of them together. Finally a chance encounter by his sister and girlfriend with a stranger brings a light to the end of Tom's tunnel, and he is off.Through all this Tom and Swift Enterprises have been the victims of industrial espionage. It all comes to a head when, one the very even of Tom's public announcement of a solution, his designs are unveiled by a rival manufacturer.
