This Week’s Question |Previous Week’s Answers

PREVIOUS RESULTS ***

Last week, we asked (on behalf of AVweb reader Bruce B.) just what level of performance might tempt you to buy an under-$150K electric airplane.

Frankly, the results of this one are probably more interesting view visually, so head over to the poll page to view results in real time. Note that you’ll have to post an answer – if you haven’t already – before you can view the results. (For the record, the “sweet spot” seems be around 500 fpm, 120-kt climb speed, 400-lb. payload, and four hours fly time.)

We also got some interesting e-mails on the electric airplane, well worth checking out.
