Uhmmmm....considering IFR flight rules requiring fuel range to your destination and then to your alternate, plus 45 minutes reserve, I’m not exactly sure what the greenie polkadotted zebra crowd is thinking when they expect certification? Or are we now letting greenie woke politics ruin air safety as well? Just asking because I’m directly under an ILS glidepath with about 450 arrivals a day. I may plan on moving?

If the plane hasa “range” of (about) 280 miles at 280 knots, doesn’t a 45 minute “IFR wait time” take almost their entire flight time? No alternative airport either.

It will end up a two seater as the additional batteries take up all the weight limits.
