Your bare bones engine without a single ancillary superimposed over a fully equipped Rotax, claiming it's doing the same job, is a nonsensical lie.

I resolved that issue with my system.

Having recently designed and build a tapered wing, pretty much nothing to fret about. The taper is so slight that in my case, aluminium, I bent to 90 degrees and the small springback was about right for the taper.

I've had a Tesla S since 2016, 4.5 years and 110,000ms, not a bit of trouble other than a rear suspension bush, and I speak to lots of other Tesla owners at charge points, and wander around the service dept when I go there, no 'out of the ordinary' big dramas from the mouths of the mechanics...

That is nothing less than an ignorant lie, and no place for it in this forum.

... is great fun. Microwave oven, super glue, vulcanised rubber, X-rays, insulin, ..... it's a long list. If you had ever wrapped a tube with fiberglass, you wouldn't be trying to dismiss me, clearly you have never had experience with it based on your post. However when ever I need to know...

Just tired of it, part frustration from the woefully slow recovery after my open heart surgery 18 months ago, which they told me would be 6 months, and I find myself channeling that frustration by elevating my contempt for this abortion. It's not right for me, I am a bit embarrassed by some of...

...and yet there thousands of 50s, 60s, 70s and 1980s fiberglass cars driving around in perfect condition after being driven in all weather conditions.. ... It's called "paint". So 20+ years for a component in salt water and severe weather exposure conditions. That's awesome. Well I hope...
