I would guess extensive testing of their prototype drone proved very reliable. Otherwise, I don’t think Eviation would have ever never gone forward.

Btw, according to Eviation their Alice commuter jet flies in 2019.

“”After winning acclaim last October at a Wall Street Journal-branded global technology conference in Laguna Beach, California, Eviation received what Bar-Yohay calls “a tsunami of interest and investment.” He expects the full-size Alice to be test-flown—with a pilot onboard—in 2019.””

Why are they calling it a jet?

...

How long will it take for the FAA to certify it for commercial service?

Have they applied to the FAA for a type certificate yet or had any discussions with them?
