I didn't mean to make a big deal about my statement. I know folks are free to enjoy whatever they wish and you're going to get camaraderie in many forms. I guess I just meant I didnt' enjoy "being nervous" all the time when I could see planes that were flown on the edge in ways that should really be practiced on foamies in private.

I love aircraft of many sizes. Each has its charms.

One thing I will say however is after going to the last few NEAT fairs last and seeing the really impressive power systems which can be used on big birds, I can categorically say I'll never build a big warbird with an electric powerplant. I MISSed the NOISE! (and the smoke!)
