I am totally retired and would not accept that to reach and visit my 95 yr old WWII veteran dad who is 580 miles from me Well that's cars again, and this topic is about Electric Air Taxis. but the point regarding electric cars and range is that everybody should stop after a couple of hundred miles to visit the toilet, have something to eat and take a break. Its very unhealthy and dangerous not to do that. In fact most authorities recommend not driving longer than two hours. During that two hours there's more than enough time to recharge an electric vehicle. Edited June 20, 20214 yr by martin-w

The spokesman said 15 minutes for recharging. Fr. Bill AOPA Member: 07141481 AARP Member: 3209010556 Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
