Are electric planes the future?

We flew in an electric plane to find out if that’s how we’ll be traveling in the future.

How do you see the future of airplanes?

It will probably make sense for local, short domestic routes

How about old school technology....rubber band powered planes?
😅

The beginning with many iterations to come.

We need an order of magnatude improvement in batteries for it to work.

The JetZero design is a good start as well. There is a chance as solid state batteries and new chemistries are implemented.

This electric plane is made by our Slovenian company Pipistrel ❤❤❤

do you think electric car fire batteries are bad? Just imagine these batteries. I vote hydrogen.

Yeah, electric is better for trains, where the power can be given to the train through the rails. Aircraft and cars don't have a good capacity, and never will.
