Burt ruatn para removed edit

The para asserting that Burt Rutan was a pioneer of Glass-fibre composite aircraft construction was and I removed it. Glass-fibre composites had been in use for aircraft construction for over twenty years before Burt Rutan even mixed his first resin batch.Petebutt (talk) 00:03, 23 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Respectfully, that was not the gist of the passage, reread it to see that what was being described is the comparison of two landmark designers. FWiW Bzuk (talk) 07:06, 23 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Complete...nonsense...when Burt Rutan became the second innovator in airframe material technology (1970s) with his composite construction concepts for complete airframes? Think about it a bit, please! His name SHOULD be mentioned here, as Hugo Junkers was the first innovator in airframe material technology in 1915, going from the "tall-ship" era wood and fabric from the Wright Brothers, to all-metal airframes.
