Adding new and complicated aircraft to an industry of already overwhelmed and under trained private pilots?
This can only go the Florida way: with some dude, blasted on meth and bud light slamming one of these bad boys into the side of a resort.
Bets on if this is exactly what happens? I got $5 for this happening
I’ll bet 10 that there’s an instagram influencer who booked the flight 5 hours before as the passenger
Electric jets? Is that a thing? How do they work?
Jet is just marketing speak here. It’s a bunch of ducted fans.
If it’s not generating compression to power itself it’s not a jet engine, it’s just sparkling ducted fans.
Like electric model airplanes and drones, but larger. Battery energy density is not high enough (yet) to electrify long-haul jumbo jets, but we’re beginning to see the electrification of small short-range aircraft.
Why so many small propellers instead of a few big ones?
Bigger propeller is less noise
Why are larger propellers quieter? Does it have to do with the rotation rate required to generate thrust?
We already have helicopters. They’re loud and somewhat dangerous. This is a dumb idea that will be you guessed it, loud and dangerous.
