You open a SaaS shop where people come to use it

But most of the stuff I’ve vibe coded this year has been astonishing by 2025’s standards.
If you got 100% I’d be genuinely blown away.
CO2 rises really fast with people in even a large space.
I wouldn’t put too much effort into vents above a door as we’ve seen that CO2 will leak through doors and even floors/ceilings very quickly.
Conversely, if we didn’t drive to work, we probably wouldn’t have a car.
On the other hand, we have a big solar array at work so if we had on-site parking (we don’t) we could drive our power home.
It’s probably impractical in reality though, the tax treatment would be chaos and we use the power we generate at work during the day on-site.
Aircraft typically operate at 80-100% power output. It’s not the average 20% power output of your car.
Weight is pretty much everything, the savings from regenerative braking in an aircraft are almost 0% but the cost of enabling it is some tons.
This tech makes loads of sense in a car but I’ve never flown an aeroplane in stop-start traffic because that’s not how the sky works.
Jokes aside though, some good performance sleuthing there.
Single pilot IFR being fun or scary mostly comes down to currency!
It worked out well for me in terms of education but that’s a small data point.
I’m not sure how much it helped though, the real challenge (at first) is making your brain handle “fly the aeroplane” and “talk to people” at the same time.
Flying powered is a “go to the airfield and takeoff” whereas gliding is more of an all-day team sport at most clubs as there’s a lot of ground handling required for towing, winches etc.
The name’s just stuck around since.
It’s very much being used! Just might not be that obvious.
Turns out rocket science is hard.
