Climate

Zero Emissions:

– at airports
– on routes up to 200 km
– on routes beyond 200 km as battery evolves

Low Emissions:

– over 50% reduction per seat compared to 50-seats turboprops on longer sectors
– over 90% advantage if SAF is used

Low Noise:

– electric motors low community noise during takeoff and landing

Profitability

Low Cost drivers:

– low electricity cost compared to jet fuel
– low maintenance cost of electric motors

Competitive Operating Costs:

– cash operating cost per seat similar to 50-seats turboprop
– cash operating cost per trip significantly better

Better Economics over time:

– longer electric flights and longer battery life
– lower battery maintenance cost
– electricity price decrease

Conventional aircraft gets more expensive:

– fossil fuel cost increase
– carbon offset and environmental penalty costs
– engine maintenance cost creep
