In other words, could you fly indefinitely as long as the active load did not exceed the alternator capacity (and assuming the regulator was working appropriately)?

   

    I had that exact thing happen in a Toyota Corolla (battery connector
	


broke off).  The car ran fine until the headlights were turned on, then

it ran very rough, then fine again once I turned the lights off.  I

drove it several miles to a place where I could replace the battery

terminal.
