Good article, except the SI (metric) measure of thrust is newtons, not kilograms. A newton is the force needed to accelerate one kilogram of mass one meter per second per second. To convert LBf to newton divide the pounds by 2.2 then multiply the result by 9.81 (Earth gravity acceleration in meters per second per second) to get the correct answer.
