I get that. Do you have a number in mind for Wh/kg needed for commercial air feasibility? Geely Auto is apparently producing solid state 350+ Wh/kg batteries for cars this year. That might be almost enough, especially given the longer lifespan usually claimed of solid state batteries. I'm not an expert on any of this stuff, but it seems at least worth waiting and seeing.
