I read the General Aviation section for a laugh. Plenty of motherhood statements, ideas about growth opportunities, nothing of any real substance.

Speaks of a flying school in Perth using the Pipistrel Velis Electro electric trainer and spruiks it as the future of general aviation. A very optimistic view given the problems with range, weight, and energy density and the fact that they're about $350,000 here, or about seven times the price of a half decent (and still overpriced considering their age!) C150/152.

Almost everything was framed so as to relate to Net Zero or Closing The Gap. Are consultants paid to write this drivel or is it public servants?
