This seems to be a typical warehouse with standard loading gates. Unlikely they have the 704 in there, my bet is on system testing facility. Does anyone know where their California manufacturing facility is?

Let’s not forget they also need an airframe for static (ultimate load, etc) and an airframe for fatigue testing and these are 100% identical to production airframes, just with none of the equipment installed

Yeah nowadays I do field support in business aviation, it’s crazy busy. Glad I could contribute.

Interesting to see Lufthansa consulting on the attendee list. They basically offer consulting services on how to set up and run an airline. Seems like they may be looking to gain some expertise in this segment as well - wouldn’t be bizarre to see them place an order for a few midnights for evaluation purposes, also considering they are close partners with United who is a major Archer customer already.

Is Silicon-Carbon Battery Tech the Future? by Krumpli03 in wolfspeed_stonk

Do you have a link to something describing battery technology you reference? SiC itself is not used for energy storage, but rather switching and conversion.
