I've just been reading this myself Pete, my question is the battery technology and weight. However if things do work out, tis a rather handsome looking plane.

It's all very well, but then when you factor in the distance to a diversion, contingency/holding allowances etc and you aren't left with all that much left to play with.

Factor in busy airspace and the problem multiplies.

But it's not circular runways though. :D
