The other problem not raised here is that the Part 135 requirements of remaining endurance will often exceed the total endurance of the aircraft. Currently proponents of electric aircraft seem to be ignoring standard 14CFR regulations as if they are 'special'. This approach is extended to the safe separation standards between aircraft which will greatly reduce the number of 'Jetsons' that can be airborne in urban areas too.
