The title says it all on this article on Nocamels.
Feeder airlines seem to believe in Alice!
I do think, that this is one of the most exciting ideas in development.

About This Blog
What this blog will eventually be about I do not know.
But it will be about how I’m coping with the loss of my wife and son to cancer in recent years and how I manage with being a coeliac and recovering from a stroke. It will be about travel, sport, engineering, food, art, computers, large projects and London, that are some of the passions that fill my life.
And hopefully, it will get rid of the lonely times, from which I still suffer.
Why Anonymous? That’s how you feel at times.

OK until you get a flat battery at 37,000 feet!

At any altitude over about 10,000 feet a aircraft of this size should be able to glide in to a suitable landing field.
I lost eighty per cent of the power in a single-engined Piper Arrow at 5,000 feet about fifty miles North of Leeds. I was able to safely glide into Leeds Airport and make a landing on very low power. I think it was done with a 767 in Canada. Most aircraft make good gliders and the Space Shuttle did unpowered landings all the time.
Remember that you have all the potential energy of the plane to convert into forward speed.
