NCIS,
Oh, you didn't offend me at all. I'm sorry that I came across so harshly, I didn't mean it that way. I was just trying to point out that plastic is just fine. Yes, you are absolutely correct that a lot of planes out there look like crap because the spinners are all torn up. Too many people just don't know how to use an electric starter properly. I don't worry too much because I hand start most of my planes anyway!!!!
