REFLECTOR: hydrogen generators and near flight status

Let's see, you are using energy to disassociate water into H and O, then
recombining and getting more energy than you used?  Seems to violate the
basic thermo laws.  Of course, it isn't that simple as you are mixing the H
with gas-air mixture.  However, again going back to basic laws, you are
mixing <1% H to the gas-air mixture and getting multiple percent increases
in energy.  Even without calculating the energy contents, seems far fetched.

On another note - I am very close to flying 444DX (SEFG).  Done with FAA and
my test pilot just went over it and left me with a todo list.  My pilot is
Robin Reid who, with Dave Morrs, piloted the Pipistrel G4 to win the NASA
Green challenge two weeks ago.  I am in good hands and will fix anything
Robin doesn't like.

Probably wont add a hydrogen system however.
