A historic electric airplane flight landed at JFK with passengers, marking a milestone as Beta Technologies demonstrates the practicality and efficiency of electric air travel.
Yeah now add more batteries to double the flight range. 8lbs per gallon is 16lbs, versus like 2,400lbs of battery. The inefficiency goes through the roof.
$0.12/kWh is pretty cheap tbh.
I was making the maths with $0,40/kWh which is expensive but can be seen is some countries, and that gives around 20kWh/100km.
It is impressive that a plane does not consume more power than a car (based on false maths ofc)
