<DIV><BR></DIV>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.
