Default RE: Fuel vs. Electric: A Pro's & Con's List

thats right, i fly battery and fuel planes, and enjoy different things about each of them! the one thing i can say about safety and the comparisons, say you have to reverse your throttle, what happens when you reverse it and the electric springs to life and gets you, a fuel plane cant spring to life just because the throttle went to wide open, there is no way a fuel engine can hurt you until you crank it, not so with electric.. my .02!
