This whole industry seems to be champing at the bit for battery energy density & production to reach a point where these aircraft have the range & price to out-compete the traditional short-medium range airline model. I've got my money on that happening before the end of the decade. Then, by the end of the 2030s, these types of aircraft will be everywhere 😃

How can we sign up for pilot training of these. Is it simulation labs first? Would love to learn how to fly them.

Hi, what will be the usual altitude (AGL) that the Archer will be flying at, from, say, a mall in the suburbs to the city international airport? And how will it deal with weather, like wind gusts, pop up storms, icing, etc?

What will it be like in gusty conditions, wind and rain? Fair weather aviators! 😆

What’s will be the life limit on the batteries and what will it cost to replace? How long does it take to recharge and how long does a charge last? The devil is always in the details.
