Could you imagine the (rather justified?) NIMBYism for all the airports required for commuter flight? If rail can’t be done, flight definitely won’t fly.

Curious, would electric flight be significantly quieter such that airport noise is significantly less of an issue?

Or is the noise from turbulence through the air or something? I honestly would think they'd be minimising turbulence anyway for energy efficiency.

Rejecting stupid ideas that are a net bad for the community isn’t NIMBYism
