250 nautical mile range at 260 knots true airspeed.

Well, I guess it's a start...

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

That it is. But it won’t mean much until they start building nuclear fission plants again.

If we are going to try to run these off wind and solar generation plants, forget it. It will never happen.

If we are going to run these off hydrocarbon fuel generation plants, forget it. There would be no point.

If and when they can do nuclear fusion, THEN we may really have something.

Boy, talk about “managing your energy”...I have an e-bike which is a lot of fun to ride, but...if you don’t keep an eye on your battery...like I did the third time I rode it and went 30 miles, I ran out of juice five miles from my house.

Five miles isn’t a big deal on a regular bike, but...this bike weighs sixty pounds and pedaling with no battery is not something you want to do unless you are really trying to work out your legs!

In a plane...
