Israeli company Eviation Aircraft successfully launched the Alice on Tuesday morning from Washington’s Grant County International Airport. The zero-emission plane traveled at an altitude of 3,500 feet for its eight-minute inaugural flight. “This is history,” Gregory Davis, Eviation’s president and CEO, told CNN Business.”We have not seen the propulsion technology change on the aircraft since we went from the piston engine to the turbine engine.
“We’ve actually generated, frankly, terabytes of data with the data acquisition systems that we had on the aircraft, so we’re going to take a couple of weeks actually and review it to see how the aircraft performs versus our models and our analysis,” Davis said. “From there, we’ll understand what we need to do next.
They've had this tech for decades... using propaganda and lies to make people think its special should enrage everyone.
If Boeing had anything to do with it, NO THANKS! To cut costs, the plane probably runs on 1,000 D Batteries…they just won’t tell anyone…
I’m a big fan of advancing tech but 287 mile range isn’t gonna cut it.

Makes me nervous
Good luck with that! 😂🤣😅 Let's see how many Democrats and climate change activists are willing to put their money were their mouths are. Better yet, let's see John Carry start to use them! 😅🤣😂 .
That's a good start, but is it really feasible? Batteries lose a lot of performance in extreme conditions, and it's really cold up there.
Flexible solar panels on the top might extend its range.
bich me battery kam krna band kr de to🤣🤣
Just take the train.
It’s a modest start. At 440 nautical miles this range is very limiting if you factor some safety margin. If the batteries need charging in place it won’t viable as hopper. Still, got to start somewhere.
Elon Musk and Human Trafficking Through the gift of revelation that God has given me, I inform you that Elon Musk is trafficking in human beings.
Hopefully it will not come to South Africa as we do not have electricity
so cool 🤩💖
The future is green.
So in other words at a cost of enormous magnitude, relatively short range and slow speed this is not an economically viable or practically feasible product. Just another expensive virtue signal.
