If by soon you mean maybe in 50 years or so.

Oh, wow, a single place airplane that can fly for all of 2 hours.


Whoopee.


Electric planes will replace internal combustion
airplanes.


Not in the lifetime of anyone old enough to read this.

Let us know when you can run any vehicle on a press release.


Ha ha! Let you know when fuel cells run cars? Heh!
Guess you haven't hear about Iceland.

At least you've switched your naive hopes from batteries to a technology
that might actually someday be viable as a practical energy source for
vehicles.


No, the batteries have already been invented. They
just haven't been manufactured for consumers yet.

BTW, aren't you supposed to be installing solar energy systems?


No sir, I never said that at all. I accepted a partnership
which allows me to see the development and
implementation of cutting edge technology, as
my proof of concept mass marketing model
described. I don't fool with micromanagement of
labor. That's what the people who work under
partner do.
