They can fix it — make electric planes — that’s the ticket.

Just a normal day in a parking garage where an EV self destructs?

I saw this story posted yesterday. I assume it was an EV that started the fire in the parking garage.

“Investigators believe the fire started with a diesel vehicle, according to Chief Fire Officer Andrew Hopkinson of the Bedfordshire Fire and Rescue Service.”
Hilarious. Diesel fuel can’t be lit by a match which is 1000 degrees when it ignites.

Luton Airport? Iโ€™m not familiar with that one. Iโ€™ve flown in and out of Heathrow and Gatwick.

Some of the cheap airlines fly there, it’s about a 45 train ride to London from there. Probably takes less time than a taxi takes to get to downtown London from Heathrow, with all the traffic.
