[NSRCA-discussion] Airplane Weight Limits

[Ron Van Putte]

I was also not aware that glow-powered airplanes needed the handicap  
they already have.  I agree that, with innovative design and $$$,  
electric-powered airplanes can compete with glow-powered airplanes.   
The ones who suffer from the weight inequity are those who can't  
afford the $$$ to overcome the weight inequity.
