Was checking out the World’s first all-electric commuter aircraft from "Eviation" this weekend. They're calling it "Alice"; If it has your interest, MrScotch?! https://www.eviation.co/

In my opinion fuel cells would be the smarter way

I concur your notion with fuel cells. When Germany’s DLR Institute of Engineering Thermodynamics tested out the HY4-aircraft in 2016 i (in my maybe naiive hope) was dreaming about a multinational cooperation to create a hydrogen powered commuter aircraft. Time will tell...
