Supernal’s CEO thinks 2028 is a realistic target because there will be infrastructure to support air taxis.
...they think they'll be flying them within 4 years despite battery tech being a fair way off? Huh?

The Elon strategy.
"FSD in two years..."
"Mars landing by 2024..."
That's how visionaire-ism works!
If a vote come to ban this in my city I'd go knock on doors and try get as much support for banning them as I can.
Sign my petition, damn it!
No thanks . Cars are already super noisy . So a glorified quadcopter ...
rich people with too much money pretending to have a problem to solve. most people arent using the helicopters this use case covers

Hydrogen might actually make sense for these, since you need extreme energy density. But I doubt they'll be very widespread because of airspace restrictions and faa approval. I don't see how they'd be that much more common than city helicopters are now.
Oh the humanity...
Can I just have a government subsidised EV so I can stop polluting pls
Fuck off.

Yeah maybe if the wars in the world subside.
