Because you wrote the engine weighs 2700ish kg and the theoretical battery would way 2700ish tons.
- zaarn 8y agoAh, yes, correct. 1000 deadweight engines. But the difference between kg and Ton doesn't matter much, in both cases the aircraft won't fly very far.
- TheSpiceIsLife 8y agoThe difference is dramatic. I mean to say: in the drama of it. An aircraft with a third engine isn’t an altogether uncommon sight, or wasn’t not too long ago. An aircraft with one thousand extra engines goes a long way to dramatically demonstrate how ridiculous battery powered flight is with today’s, or any near-future, battery technology.
