Electric does not off set carbon. It is just the carbon is created somewhere else, like a power plant that creates the electricity that charges the battery's. And do those flight times include the mandatory 45 minute reserve. And, like a Tesla that is 10 years old the resale value is terrible because of the cost of a new battery pack is astronomical.
Both Signature and Atlantic Aviation are building charging infrastructure. Looks like Los Angeles area will be first in USA. Buy a few shares of Archer Aviation just to insure you are not left behind. Not investment advice !

@@user-my3ff5lj6m Proof reading? What an interesting idea! I shall give it a try. Of course it should have read… All swizzle, no steak. No, wait…..that ain’t quite right either. Gosh this English qwerty is tricky.
Even if the fuel is “sustainable” planes still consume A LOT of fuel. How much? A single Trans Atlantic flight, one way, will burn about 70,000 litres total liquid fuel. This is equivalent to 700,000 kwhrs of total energy. The engines will therefore burn 7500 litres of fuel burned per hour or 125 litres per minute. Every passengers plane ticket buys about 500 litres of fuel equivalent in energy to 5000 kilowatt hours per person. The return journey therefore uses 10,000 kwh energy per person. To put these tremendous amounts of energy in terms that are easily understood MacKay equates it to a hot shower: a 30 litre hot shower, about 7 minutes long, typically uses 1.4 kilowatt hours of electricity, therefore a single 7 hour trans Atlantic return airplane flight uses as much energy as 7142 showers for every person on board the plane (5000 kwhr x 2 trip divided by 1.4 kWh). This is the equivalent in energy to just over 1 million showers total for the entire plane! (7142 showers per passenger x 141 passengers = 1,007,022 showers)
This whole idea of sustainability, it’s great that we’re working on it but it’s completely ridiculous to think even by the 2030s that an all electric airplane can do anything you need an airplane to do it’s just not gonna happen, all the same let’s be productive and keep working on it, but physics is physics.
This video shows exactly how serious and professional LILM is! They are showcasing their progress and sharing the process of development for all to see. And they are doing it THE RIGHT WAY! Meaning they are using industry standard compliance and auditing in all aspects of development. Regulated by the toughest standards for satefy in aircraft design and manufacture. This company couldn't be any more "by the numbers" if they tried. Finally their aircraft design is much safer for ground personnel with no rotary external parts. I am proudly investing in their awesome journey towards green aviation. No air pollution and zero emission carbon footprint! Very silent running for amazing inter-city lownoise flights is a game changer in this industry. They are truly unique in their vision with this aircraft. LILM is the NVDA of aviation.
There will be failures. Always are. Failure is a prerequisite to success. Research Archer Aviation. They are building a factory. Their product is already flying (a version with the military). Seed money and firm orders are in place. Archer might be less like Rivian, and more like Tesla.
@@GroundhogDK 40yr pilot and 30yr controller’s viewpoint here. This is a complete travesty. This monstrosity is what happens when proof-of-concept meets real world realities. It is almost as stupid as electric fire trucks and EMT vehicles. History has shown, time after time, that the most crucial infrastructure needs the oldest technology that has a proven safety record. Large battery packs that are subjected to constant vibration, say from turbulence, are the most succeptible to internal failure. Even with multiple packs split among the motors, they will be located in close proximity, so a thermal runaway in one will quickly lead to complete fire devastation of the airframe. It will happen fast and it will be complete. For anyone wanting to invest in this nonsense, I’ve got a bridge in Brooklyn I’d like to sell you.
If you can afford to enjoy viewing the Grand Canyon in a noisy, expensive, jet-A gulping helicopter, Imagine how enjoyable it will become when quiet, renewable, and half the price.
Electric propulsion suffers from drawbacks that, until solved, make it almost entirely infeasible for commercial use. Today’s battery technology is much too heavy for the amount of energy stored so flight times are short. Secondly the turnaround is way too long in a commercial environment. One of the most important metrics for a commercial operation is how fast you can get the plane back into the air. A plane on the ground is not making any money and if you have to spend several hours recharging, that is idle time that is not making money.
Self driving cars were supposed to be available by now, but are much further away than was predicted. They are also there looking for more investers. Hydrogen fueled aircraft seem to be more possible than electric, or at least in the mix . The future will be interesting to say the least.
Lilium is a scam. No flight possible....over 3min. No air worthiness, no payload, no passengers. All fantasy to fraudulently drain money from unknowing investors. A terrible example of students ripping off with false claims....so economically it works- for the scammers.
If you are looking for security …buy Treasuries. If you want a chance to 100x your money, you need to throw a few bucks into an emergent technology. ACHR has a flying product, a military contract, an order from United Airlines, a factory being built, and cash in the bank. Not investment advice.
How long do the batteries last? Where do you dispose of them when they're life span has been spent. Lastly charging stations and cost to charge it. I love technology but there is a double standard about charging an EV. You have to have an electrical power plant run on coal, natural gas or turbine power. So how is this any better?
If the transition had to take place tomorrow, you would be correct. But the USA is innovative. And the market is transformative… think Grand Canyon tours transitioning from Bell Helicopters to Archer Midnights over a number of years. This is gradual, not a flip of a switch. The grid has accommodated millions of Teslas and a few Ford EVs! Signature and Atlantic Aviation are already contracting for the airport charging stations. There are several companies profitably recycling Tesla batteries. Battery hand tools, lawn mowers, etc all had detractors. But annually, they gain market share.
Because low cost is the driving force amongst mass transportation. If you want to pay more, you can get that which you seek. The new Gulfstream G800 has no issues with legroom !
Cirrus jet is unique because, as many owners now realizing, when their brakes fail and there’s no thrust reverser, the jet is trashed. Many Cirrus jets have crashed after landing or just taxing because of brake failure. There’s no other backup to stop the jet. It’s a joke.
That is no different from any other light aircraft. Pipers, Cessnas, Beechcrafts, the entire Cirrus production. And a malfunctioning thrust reverser, especially on a single-engine aircraft, would be more catastrophic than brake failure!
You might be surprised. NYC, LA, Chicago are more likely candidates but any city that daily experiences bumper-2-bumper traffic is a market for eVTOLs.
Nothing is 100%, but how often have you had to use a fire extinguisher on your iPad? And unlike conventional airplanes, eVTOLs fly low and can put down when necessary on an empty lot.
It’s a business aviation event-and unlikely to ever radically to change anything that has much to do with mass people movement, in airplanes carrying 200 to 600 people.
Agreed. I don’t think you will see Boeings on Batteries, but there is a huge market for inner-city transport and sight-seeing. The expensive, noisy helicopters flying over the Grand Canyon are a prime market. The helicopters flying around NYC, LA, and Chicago. Anywhere that battles Highway congestion. Anyplace that has high-net-worth individuals who value time over money. Anyone who owns a private jet will love the opportunity to takeoff from their backyard and land right next to their awaiting BBJ
Every expensive conventional airplane uses dozens of batteries. Some lead-acid, some lithium. Every person onboard that airplane has a least one lithium battery in their possession. Battery technology, and condition monitoring, has come a long way. When was the last time your iPad burst into flames? It is a rare occurrence. These eVTOL fly low and can land like a helicopter. The anti-airplane meme of “you can’t just pull over to the side of the road like a car”… well these literally can.
@@MadawaskaObservatory And you probably said Tesla would be unsuccessful. Look at Archer. The technology works. Will it take over the world? No. Will it, like Tesla, grab significant market share, and quiet detractors? Undoubtedly!
The future is going to be electric for small planes especially. There are so many advantages. So quite and reliable , plus bringing costs down. You are getting rid of so many parts .Im guessing the hours flown before major work needs doing is going to be a factor of 6 to 10 times less than piston driven planes. . Its a no brainer ❤
Interesting the producers of these electrical planes are aiming for finalisation by 2030. Can't wait to see how many of these planes sell on a global scale.. If I'm travelling between continents needing minimum 10+ hours of travel time, why would I buy any of these electrical planes?
You wouldn’t for long haul. But as the person above states, Archer and others, will make a market impact in less than two years. Helicopters are loud, expensive and drink copious volumes of fuel. eVTOLS will slowly replace maybe half the markets that use helicopters. Heavy lift, oil rig transport, Marine One? Most likely no! But Grand Canyon tours and NYC flights up/down the Hudson? Bank on it!
Grab a coffee and take a seat in your LazyBoy. Watch electric technology grab aviation market share in real time. This will be quicker and more obvious than the Tesla transformation of America’s roads.
The physics doesn't work. It will fly, but aircraft are about weight. Battery technology is too heavy for the energy stored. There's nothing that can be taken airborne that comes close to kerosene. Yes...jet fuel is kerosene with additives.
While new technology is exciting and some of these aircraft are quite beautiful, the entire "clean energy", "renewable" means of marketing these craft...is laughable. Private flight will ALWAYS be a wasteful luxury, and those that are fortunate to partake are NOT stewards of the environment, no matter how many trees are planted to offset each mile flown. (What a joke that barcoded plane was.) In buying "eco-friendly" models, wealthy private owners are merely seeking to alleviate the guilt associated with personal flying by trying to prove they've embraced "green" travel...and corporate executives know they're more apt to attain board of director approval for their desired luxury aircraft purchase if they target an "efficient" model. In addition, corporations will make a point of listing their new "economical" asset on their annual statements in order to please woke investors. It's all a big racket. I'm not against the private aviation market. In fact, I love it. What I don't like is all the phony virtue signaling of the elite who buy such aircraft, thinking they're "doing their part" for the environment. If they truly cared about fuel efficiency and curbing waste, they'd travel commercially like most average citizens. Otherwise, they should just climb aboard their private jets, fly in luxury, and live with the guilt that they are contributing to pollution at a highter rate than most citizens.
Race cars, skeet shooting, millions of baseball diamonds, skydiving, recreational boating. Every leisure activity can be described as a waste by curmudgeons. But recreational aviation will become more energy efficient as electrics replace leaded aviation gas.
@@tz6516 Agreed. Most all human activity involves inefficiency and waste. That's part of the human condition. It's the smoke and mirror marketing techniques I was commenting on. You can call it being a "curmudgeon". I refer to it as...being honest. Enjoy your battery operated world.
@@007gunlogo That is the beauty of market driven economics. You can buy electric or gas. Your choice. What we should avoid is government, lobbyists, or curmudgeons deciding winners or losers.
Bigger question is how is that commercially feasible? If we split passengers by 5 thats around 100 of those planes for 500 passengers that would fit in 1 plane 1 flight. Do we have that much airspace? Yes the sky is massive and heights/elevation play a key role but imagine the number of planes in the sky! This challenges the ever so boasted aircraft safety in comparison to vehicles given the collision statistics
Not that long ago, crossing the Atlantic by airliner was fraught with danger. Now airliners cross by the hundreds, separated by only 1000’ vertically. CPDLC allows pilots and controllers to almost never verbally speak to each other. eVTOLS will use these technologies to safely operate in close proximity and in large numbers. Assume there will be incidents and accidents, but aviation will remain safer than driving your car. That is until cars adopt this technology for separation and safety through automobile autonomous driving.
Boeing V-22 Osprey is vertical take off jet developed in 1989. I dont see any innovation about trying to attract/convince people flying with bunch of hair driers.
@@tz6516 Yes definitely there is a transformation happening right now with Net zero targets, sustainable aviation fules, hybrid electric technologies. However, this transformations are not being done by Lilium. Sorry.
It was disappointing. Even a novice journalist would have asked, for example, how to store all carbon offset trees when they stop growing, how to store hydrogen, how to prevent lithium battery fires, what is Lilium's range and capacity, etc... This video is just click bait and full of green wishful thinking and BS. Waste of time.
Lets get real. Forget electric propulsion. Our electric infrastructure is so badly outdated, we'll have blackouts nationwide when we start recharging fleets of aircraft and vehicles.
Every market needs a catalyst for change. Massive new electric generation and grid upgrades will be driven by Artificial Intelligence needs. But eVTOL, Bitcoin mining, and the electrification of everything will drive exciting electric innovation.
That may be true, but I don’t see any move to limit air or space travel. The Olympics required airline travel for both participants and fans. The next manned launch from Cape Canaveral will be four astronauts who paid for the privilege. You may not like it, but enjoyment of present day life trumps the green new deal.

Boeing V-22 Osprey is vertical take off jet developed in 1989. I dont see any innovation about trying to attract/convince people flying with bunch of hair driers.
LOL...hair dryers. I was thinking portable fans, but hairdryers is far funnier. Congrats!
Enjoy the coming aviation transformation.
@@tz6516 Yes definitely there is a transformation happening right now with Net zero targets, sustainable aviation fules, hybrid electric technologies. However, this transformations are not being done by Lilium. Sorry.

HondaJet is NOT the most advanced light jet. You never see one in the wild. They’re not good.
How about the cost for common population ?
Also regarding the AirTraffic is concerned, it might be highly regulated.
It's a scam
Nah its not
@@000000AEA000000it is.
Eliminate your use of the word ‘actually’ please!
won't work until the batteries are light
Lilm craft will taxi cooperate vp’s from office to home and tourists from hotel to amusement park.
daydreaming junk
It was disappointing. Even a novice journalist would have asked, for example, how to store all carbon offset trees when they stop growing, how to store hydrogen, how to prevent lithium battery fires, what is Lilium's range and capacity, etc... This video is just click bait and full of green wishful thinking and BS. Waste of time.
Lets get real. Forget electric propulsion. Our electric infrastructure is so badly outdated, we'll have blackouts nationwide when we start recharging fleets of aircraft and vehicles.
Every market needs a catalyst for change.
Massive new electric generation and grid upgrades will be driven by Artificial Intelligence needs.
But eVTOL, Bitcoin mining, and the electrification of everything will drive exciting electric innovation.
@@tz6516 You're dreaming. But that's ok as long as you don't wake up.

So Tesla car sales are not real?
And the 6500 supercharger network is fake news?
Jet aircraft and Rocket's are the biggest threat to our environment,
That may be true, but I don’t see any move to limit air or space travel.
The Olympics required airline travel for both participants and fans.
The next manned launch from Cape Canaveral will be four astronauts who paid for the privilege.
You may not like it, but enjoyment of present day life trumps the green new deal.
Lilium Joby and Archer. Get in now.
Anchor over acting😅😅
