Yep. Came across an article from COPA (Canadian Owners and Pilot's
Association) filling in some the the details of the Harbour Air plane.
It was so stuffed full of batteries there was hardly any useful load
left. Which puts it more in the category of publicity stunt than a
serious attempt to develop an electric plane. And of course calling it
the first all-electric commercial aircraft is disingenuous in the extreme.
