As things are coming to an end shall we reflect on the misery of RAS. From past responses RAS has caused considerable pain and serious mental issues for many. The term MOTORGLIDER really lit the fuse and caused torment among many. The term PURIST caused the motorglider guys to go ballistic and they were having problems with identity, They did not like the term motorglider, refused to be respectful of PURIST and therefore evolved into a class of their own, not a glider and not a power plane. Ok, you figure it out, just what is the term for these contraptions??? OBTP
