Sydney ..(Hilly part !) .. Australia/ Down under !
Beta Technologies’ Alia prototype has completed a 2,000-mile journey from Vermont to Eglin Air Force Base in the Florida Panhandle, ……….
During its 16-day journey down to Eglin, Beta’s Alia aircraft flew over 12 U.S. states, making about 20 stops along the way to recharge its batteries using several of its own multimodal charging stations
Hmm ? ….16 days !……the Pony Express and Wells Fargo were faster !
Gonna’ need some bigger/better batteries !
