I have to agree with Frode, Dean. Again, the examples are interesting, but
not complete in their explanation of the phenomenon of gravity.
Electromagnetism may generate an eletrostatic field, and the size and power
of the magnet may alter that force, so, perhaps mass does play some part in
gravitational forces, even if the source is based in soft particle physics.
Just keeping an open mind.

- Norlan,
- But it is the charge which the mass possesses. Charge often corresponds to density and mass, but not always. Clouds have mass, but they don't even have a positive charge by which to be attracted- they have a negative charge by which they are repulsed.
- The gravity charge of objects can increase in proportion to mass, but only until they attain a diameter of 150 miles or so. ( I am referring to celestial objects here ). From that point on they mass will increase but not the intensity of the charge.
- The Sun has mass but it emits little direct gravity-inducing radiation.
- I do realise that, in the case of winged aircraft, aerodynamics in involved in the function, too. Less air pressure from above will give an aircraft the tendency to rise. But that is not the only dynamic going on. To say this should not cause a problem.
