It's hard to forget just how delusional people are. I made the mistake of wandering into a comment section where people are convinced an electric future is just around the corner and everything is going to be powered by solar panels.
Some prize comments:
- I bet they could make it more efficient by letting the propellers windmill on descent and harvesting the energy
- If they have range problems they should have the plane liase with electric drones for mid-flight recharging
- Solar power is the cheapest form of electricity available
- Battery fires aren't a problem, they just need to encase each battery in a fireproof shell (enjoy your bank of pressure cooker bombs)
- Various complaints about requirements for planes to carry reserve fuel
