Thanks for the site/px link; I was about to ask whether you were attempting this with or without artificial wings...

Perhaps you should try it yourself Andrew. It would make you a better pilot. I guarantee it. ;)

That's what they say, but I prefer a nice big engine to get me out of sticky situations should the need arise... ;D

Ah, but what happens if the engine fails? It doesn't matter how big it is then. A good pilot doesn't rely on an engine to get out of trouble.

True, but I like having an engine that runs most of the time compared to having no engine at all... ;D
