The #electric #aviation industry has publicly downplayed the challenges associated with certifying large #lithium propulsion #batteries, but it’s been a topic of intense negotiation behind the scenes. That's why a milestone announced this week by Swiss battery maker #H55 is so meaningful: it shows a manufacturer and regulator agreeing on the specific tests required to demonstrate that a large propulsion battery is safe for #flight.

The best perk to working as a divemaster turns out to be meeting friends who invite you to do cool things like flying! 😁 Big thank you to Yair for taking me up in his paramotor for the most incredible flights of my life! This video is mostly from my first flight over l'Estartit (Spain), the Medes Islands, and the Montgri Castle. Incredible to see it all from above!
