Unless you're talking about tacking things together with liquid nails
while the real glue cures, the glue joint will be very, very weak in
comparison with the underlying material, and subject to creep. So you
will have to size up the material significantly. Probably to the
point where no amount of power will get you off the ground. Or,
accept a safety factor under 1. Better to use almost anything else,
even white glue from the drugstore.

Other problems -
Screaming on your way to the ground can irritate the throat
The crash may cause the surrounding brush to catch fire
A shameful waste of a perfectly good engine and instruments
Increased accident rates make EVERYONE's insurance rates go up
