PREVIOUS RESULTS ***

Last week, we asked AVweb readers to peer into their crystal balls and enlighten us as to the future of electric airplanes.

The results? Not many AVweb are hopeful futurists who believe the day of combustion engines is drawing to a close – although 4% of you are! At the other end of the spectrum, a quarter of those who responded (27%) think there will be little to no commercial application for electric airplanes. The majority of you (58%), however, feel that pistons and turbines will remain the engines of choice despite a few electric-engine success stories.

Are there still too many “personal jets” coming to market?
