Default RE: Loss of fields

Red: Here in the city of Scappose, Oregon of Columbia County I too would enjoy seeing the mass commuters traveling through town into Portland going 35 mph instead of 70 while going through red stoplights with their gas hogs on hiway 30. My point in mentioning the electric motored powered car was that as an retired aircaft mechanic from Horizon Airlines, that not one commercial passenger airliner with electric engines ever taxiied up to the passenger terminal and deplaned a load of passengers. So why should we modelers have to change to electric motors to fly our models? Is this just another method of creating a product to make money? Well, someone on another thread mentioned that his fuel engine would have to be pried from his cold dead fingers before and electric motor would be installed in his plane.

IMHO, the thought has occurred to me that this topic maybe a religious one, and not be something discussed.
