with a glow plane its fill er up and fly,with non fossil fuel.
glow planes burn alcohol based fuel,not fossil fuel FYI.
FYI, methanol is, for all practical purposes, a fossil fuel. It's made from natural gas. Nitromethane also is ultimately made from petroleum as is the synthetic oil in model fuel. Castor oil is vegetable based however.
Ethanol is made from corn, not methanol. Glow engines burn methanol, not ethanol.
To be perfectly fair, I'll point out the fact that most electric power ultimately comes from fossil fuel also.
