BOSTON, Aug. 18, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- For decades the theoreticians proved that bumblebees could not fly and were extremely irritated that they continued to fly anyway – using different equations. Much the same thing is happening with fixed-wing battery-electric aircraft. They were supposed to be impossible, but over one hundred are up there with around 1000 on order. These are small so they do not even need a new principle of flying. They just copy the Tesla approach with cars down below. The IDTechEx report, "Manned Electric Aircraft: Smart City and Regional 2021-2041" has detail on these electric fixed-wing aircraft as well as analysis of radical new electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft designs.

Key Points: 
  • To mark National Aviation Day (19thAugust 2021), a celebration of the history and development of aviation, IDTechEx analysts consider the future of electric aircraft.
  • The IDTechEx report, " Manned Electric Aircraft: Smart City and Regional 2021-2041 " has detail on these electric fixed-wing aircraft as well as analysis of radical new electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft designs.
  • Faced with reality, the naysayers of small electric aircraft now turn their attention to larger electric aircraft and vertical take-off being impossible.
  • City air taxi economics are rightly questioned by IDTechEx in their drill-down report, " Air Taxis: Electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing Aircraft 2021-2041 ".
