Exciting stuff! Glad some people are working on electrifying air travel, though it will be more challanging than cars and trucks.

Not as challenging as electrifying sea shipping but we will work something out.
Are electric ships more challenging than aircraft? My naive expectation would be that battery weight would be less of a constraint...
I think the main challenge is density.
Joules per kilogram or joules per litre? Or both?
