The second YB-49 crashed during stall testing.



LOL.



Your are laughing at the death of five people, asshole.



An old friend, who was a test pilot there at Muroc (now Edwards AFB)

told me that they were testing the YB-49 with all four engines on one

side pulled back and then doing stall testing. The asymmetric thrust,

coupled with slow spool-up time on those four engines, resulted in a

vicious, unrecoverable stall/spin.

Unfortunate loss of life.

If you've ever watched the YouTube videos of
auto drag-races with an electric car or bike
against *anything* else, the ramifications of
instant massive torque should make a light bulb
go off in one's head. No spool-up.

About your idea that EV's have to carry their
own oxidizer. --- Not with lithium air batteries.

About Boeing's "lithium battery problem". I
believe we will see the problem came from he

To surpass gasoline with electric, at this time
requires a combination of electric systems,
including PEM hydrogen fuel cells. There are
other electric systems which need to be tied
in as well, but I wouldn't reveal it in a
public forum at this time.

So -- what does it cost to do this? (including operational costs)
