Gentlemen,

It is quite correct that gel cell and RG batteries are different, IF the
names are used correctly. Speaking with Bob Nuckolls, he tells me that
the "gel cells" at battery stores really ARE RG, and the marketing
people have their head up where the sun doesn't shine in order to get a
name that sounds good without regard to the facts.

One contributor commented about the cable on the retractable step
wearing through the guide tube. I flew yesterday in the company L4P
demonstrator (one SWEET airplane) with Don Goetz, and he tells me that
he puts nylaflow tubing over the cable inside the metal guide.
