Another
cool thing about electric or hydraulic is it isn't absolutely necessary to put the Fan next to the power supply. Put the Hot Core on the tail, the Fan on a very trim nacelle on the Wing. Spread the weight around. Having seen JT-9's generate 4 MegaWatts on a Powerplant Gang, I would like to think that the new ultralight electric motors might have a place in some new aero application also.
