Zachanonymous 0 #1 Posted September 22, 2019 How much fuel is used to bring a plane to altitude and back to earth for an 8 passenger plane ( would that equate to a King Air?) and if that doesn't cover a King Air then how much might a King Air burn? Do you see in the future, the possibility of electric aircraft? Obviously within 100 years I could imagine something like that, but in the near future, I am keeping in mind that DropZones are using hand me down aircraft. That was my assumption at least.
