How very true and i'll never forget that unlucky #13 flight.
The whole world prayed and thats where the power came from.
As for the battery question if you ask 1 question you may get 20 different answers.
I was on that thread a few days ago.
If you use NMH batteries (and i'm building all my packs with them) You don't have to worry about recycling them but they take a bit longer to charge
