Don't know about everybody else but for once it would be nice to not have to worry about noise abatement, fiery but otherwise survivable crashes, fuel and oil spills, CG changes, etc. when flying one of these puppies. I personally find it incredibly shameful that, because of the chokehold that the oil industry has on our economy and R&D, the Chinese are beating us hands-down when it comes to affordable electric motor technology for GA.
Hopefully we can get some bright tech people to takeoff with it here in the good ole' USA 'cause in my opinion this is the only real quantum leap in GA for the foreseeable future!
