While you are sitting around here this winter trying to figure out how you are 
going to get the weather to cooperate so that you can squeeze a little flying 
in, you might take a few minutes and check out this site.  These German dudes 
have put a Hydrogen fuel cell on a flying wing, and it is just pretty cool.  I 
think we can expect some of this stuff to start showing up on a year or two as 
alternative fuel sources for our planes, transmitters, and who knows what else. 
 This is pretty exciting technology if you ask me.  The page by the way is in 
German (http://www.pozefilm.de/wh.html) so you might want to RIGHT CLICK on the 
page and go down the menu to PAGE INFO then scroll over to TRANSLATE PAGE INTO 
ENGLISH to be able to read the contents of the page, but even that isn't 
necessary if you just want to watch the videos of the plane.  Pretty sweet 
stuff.

Oh btw, my dreams have come true in that GWS has release a P-38 Lightning and 
it looks pretty sweet.  I haven't bought it yet (I have to make some room in my 
garage for stuff first), but plan to at first opportunity.  BP Hobbies even has 
a sweet brushless hop up for it that I think if I were to buy it I would do 
just to get the needed power (GWS is notorious for underpowering their planes) 
and just to make it fly quieter than the gearboxes.
 
Praying that the weather clears soon for some long distance flying! :D
