    I read this a bit ago. Hopefully all this tech eventually finds it way into aircraft.

    My money “hope” is actually on smaller solid state batteries than can be recharged through the air. Similar to watt up tech and ossia.

    With power over air you need less battery storage and work on keeping the battery from dropping.

    Also I think best case scenario would be a massive reduction in the amount of planes flying.

    High speed rail would be a better solution. Planes across seas and then rail travel on land.

    If trains can get within speeds of air travel then we might be getting there.

    Alas will be long dead before anything happens
