color=#0000ff>I'm not so sure it is such a silly comparison for people outside
of the US, where costs can be considerable in the fuel department. Our figures
indicate that at we would be at 'break even' point if we get 100 flights a
pack. Anything more and its gravy. We are not including things like I/C engine
rebuilds etc either. We simply treated the packs as 'fuel' in our estimations.
Like anything, maintenance and correct installation is an issue/learning
curve...and done properly I can see Electric making economic
rationale.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Yes and you need to figure out the jump in your
electric bill. Getting silly isn't it? It's a 2:1 comparison,
assuming the batteries last, which apparently, they don't.</FONT></DIV>
