"Beta is alone in focusing on cargo, and is hoping to win F.A.A. approval in 2024. If it succeeds, it believes it will do more than make aviation history.
In the company's grand vision, electric cargo planes replace fleets of exhaust-spewing short-haul box trucks currently congesting America's roads.
With a limit of 250 nautical miles per battery charge, the vehicles would land atop solar-powered charging stations made out of shipping containers, some equipped with showers, bunks and kitchenettes.

"Listening to a Beethoven symphony instead of dance music, or hip-hop while on the move could possibly increase the range of your electric car and improve its energy efficiency, according to tests recently carried out on behalf of one manufacturer...According to Kia?s trial, playing Beethoven's "Symphony No.9" inside an electric vehicle (EV) made it more efficient. By contrast, the Weeknd?s high-energy smash hit "Blinding Lights" had a negative effect on the battery.
"What we found from only two days of testing was that music really can have a dramatic influence on the real-world driving range of an electric vehicle," said Williams.
Kia?s playlist consisted of Tycho (Awake), Adele (Hello), The Weeknd (Blinding Lights), Anna Meredith (Nautilus), Kanye West (Fade) and Beethoven's Symphony No.9. It seems those taking part drove up to four times more efficiently when listening to Beethoven than other songs.
