ELECTRICALLY TYPE OF MICROLIGHT

Existing text

New text

1.4.10 An electrically powered Microlight or Paramotor is one powered exclusively by electricity, typically sourced from a battery, fuel cell or photo-voltaic cell inclusively. For the purposes of comparison with other fuel types, the source device shall be considered 'fuel' rather than a 'fuel tank'. the source has to be unique unless solar cells which are allowed in all cases.

Reason

The question is to understand if all kind of category may be used during record attempt at the the same time in the same aeroplane. Or has to be defined as "inclusive" or "exclusive".

 In the case of photo-voltaic, it could affect the S10 3.4.2 (refuelling in the air). So we suggest to allow solar cells in all cases (including fuel limited) exactly as horizontal winds or vertical motion of atmosphere are allowed in all cases.
