<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>I spent some time digging through the EPA
site the article referred to. It stresses lawnmowers, marine engines, and
“handheld” engines. Didn’t specifically exempt ones
used for modeling, but since this is phase 2 of the law, and phase 1 went into
effect back in 97-98, and focused on 25 hp or less – and we’ve seen
the explosion in growth of gas airplane engines since then, I’d guess
Keith is right – it’s a non-issue. Desert Aircraft,
RCShowcase, et al can’t ALL be thumbing their noses at the EPA, can they?
And as far as glow engines – not even the same kind of fuel, so again off
the books as far as this set of rules is concerned.</span></font></p>
