![]() "Wayne Paul" wrote Put the Sonex electric power plant in a Xenos register it as a glider; and, get a glider rating with a self launch log book endorsement. Problem solved. Can't argue with that. I don't have a problem with an electric motor in an airplane, as long as it makes sense. In the current state of technology, electric makes no sense for a power airplane. Not for the foreseeable future. That all changes once you get to an electric motor in a sailplane. That makes great sense. It is an improvement from a sailplane without a motor. That's what it looks like to me, anyway. The only thing that is a problem with the electric self launch sailplane now, is the price. Ouch. It's a hefty price to pay, to have the coolest toy on the block! g -- Jim in NC |
