From the tank shown in the article it looks like it would fit best in the fuselage.
Hypoint is developing the fuel cells, and they’ve partnered with someone else on the tanks. Electric motors for small planes don’t appear to be a challenge. Beta technologies out of Burlington Vermont is flying electric planes with lithium batteries today. So in that case, it is really about switching the energy source for the plane.
I think what’s missing is all the hydrogen infrastructure to get cryogenic hydrogen to the runway. But that’s a classic chicken and the egg problem.
