I found this link in another discusion group.

It's a great animation, exploded view and detailed description of how an aircraft Magneto and Impulse coupler works.... courtesy of the University of North Dakota. One of the best examples I've ever seen for computer training use.

The top menu is not 100% active at this time, but the right hand selection does change between "Operation" and "Components".

Check it out!

Wow! You never fully understand something until you take it apart, but this was almost as good. Thanks for posting this.
