A full battery replacement, which 5 years ago was said to be very close to 50k (!), is now qouted at 10K and 1K from two different sources. IMVHO the former is correct. I have touched the ship (beautiful), and seen it fly very gracefully in low altitude, weak lift; on landing, ailerons remained effective down to walking speeds. Batteries can't be removed for lighter wing weight and loading. Aldo
