Further thoughts on energy density:
- Jet Fuel energy density: ~12,000 Wh/kg 
- Batteries energy density: ~500 Wh/kg 
- Electric Motors efficiency: ~85-90%
- Jet engine efficiency ~30-40% 

So batteries at 1,000-2,000 Wh/kg starts to be competitive with Jet Fuel, and would really start to surpass it at 5000 Wh/kg

Great points on energy density! It's fascinating to consider how advancing battery tech might change aviation and other industries. Although jet fuel remains dominant due to its high energy density, innovations pushing battery capacity could revolutionize efficiency, sustainability, and operational costs.
