All added, not tested

Rik,

I tried all the ones you just added to Glider and all appear to work. The ARCE & A34E show as Single Electric and the rest show as Single Piston. All show as a Glider marker on my VRS.

Mac,

These were updated as a request from another user. And here in lies the eternal question of points of view. 🤣
As they are power gliders they felt they were better suited to a glider marker rather than a generic GA/Light aircraft.
I think my solution would be to create another glider like marker, but with a slightly shortened span... thoughts welcomed

I know very little of gliders and even less of the powered one. I think the current glider marker works fine. Just my personal thought on the subject.

If you're OK with them as they are then I'll close this issue down again.

In future I may do a power gliders marker for things like the DIMO, SF25, RF10 style power gliders as these were designed as such and leave the powered gliders in the gliders section

I'm good with glider and motors gliders having the GLID marker, they all look the same up in the air. :)
