Omar: so the FAA just gave it a test run - how'd they do?
Sanaaziz: i remember when they were pitching it as a way to reduce truck traffic and emissions, now they're just testing if it actually works
Obsidian Pulse: it's wild how much tech has to catch up before we see these systems integrated properly
Rayanlarsen: this thing is more a cargo van than an aircraft right now still trying to wrap my head around the FAA testing it for real use cases
Lena: interesting to see how this will change logistics, might be useful for some companies but hard to imagine widespread adoption when you consider the costs and operational limitations
Sana: how's the safety record looking after this FAA testing?
Fractal Sable: now this is what i'd call an underdog story, FAA giving elroy air some space to test their tech
Cleob: saw that Chaparral fly at the LA air show a few years back, didn't impress me then either
Neon Nomad: seems like they're trying to make the whole no-runway bit sound way more convenient than it probably is in real life
Mila: unbelievable they're just now testing this thing, been hearing about Elroy Air for years
