"Electric EEL is an adapted six-seat Cessna. There is a conventional
combustion engine in the back of the plane that drives the rear propeller.
"... [a] compartment under the cabin holds six batteries - originally built

plane lighter - hence the steeper climb - but also, the makers argue,
quieter, cheaper, greener."

Listen to the mustn'ts, child; listen to the don'ts.
Listen to the shouldn'ts, the impossibles, the won'ts.
Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me:
Anything can happen, child. Anything can be.
