Default What is involved regulation wise adding an electric motor to aglider?

That's really great! I wonder, however... Are they also setting up the
infrastructure? How many airports have hydrogen? If I chose to carry
my own, where would I get it?

Seriously, I think fuel cells are a better way to go for electrics, but
where does the fuel come from? In a reasonable amount of time.

Pipistrel is working on a hydrogen fuel cell powered aircraft. This might be an interesting idea to consider.
I have heard of another company working on a larger 6 person aircraft that recently took flight.
