Alaska Airlines Partners with ZeroAvia to Develop World's Largest Zero Emissions Aircraft
ZeroAvia has received a Bombardier Q400 regional turboprop aircraft from Alaska Airlines in the United States, which the company will retrofit with a hydrogen-electric propulsion system. (aeroxplorer.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Interesting concept, but it must succeed in the free market on its own merit without government subsidies, mandates, or other intervention. It won't keep the climate from changing.
It's a pipe dream solution to a non existent problem. Batteries are 15 times less energy density as Jet Fuel. And gaseous hydrogen is around 9-10 times less energy density as Jet Fuel. This when you consider the volumetric density of the compressed hydrogen and the weight of the tanks.
And the reason it's a non existent problem is the CO2 warming hoax is revealed in the following papers showing the warming of CO2 is 1,000 to 2,000 times less than natural water cycles:

The future may be hydrogen…or maybe something else. But at least trey are not trying to use heavy batteries.
Alaska Airlines has always been at the forefront in development of new aviation technology providing dramatic improvements in safety, access, and efficiency to the industry. Working with Flight Dynamics to bring CAT IIIA procedures to the B-727. First to develop GPS technology with with RNP/RNAV first in Juneau, AK (PAJN). If it’s certified in Juneau it will work anywhere).
Fuel cells powering electric motors will replace turbines as surely as turbines replaced pistons.
Not for several generations
It’s more readable then batteries
Ment to say viable but spell check and my lack of proof reading messed up that post.
