Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
There's a pretty good explanation for the new change to delivering the release process on Deltanet now. IMO, no biggie.

Don't have time to go back and find the discussion but those that were talking advances in aviation technology....Elon Musk says we are nearing the battery technology for electric transcon flights. Whether you agree with him or not, he's definitely an interesting, out the box thinking guy.
Time stamp 38:30 is where he mentions electric flight. The whole interview is interesting if you have time.

Theoretically, there is enough Thorium that if it were used in molten salt breeder reactors, there would be enough excess energy to produce hydrocarbons. If the government stopped wasting money on entitlements, and invested in three key technologies, Thorium molten salt reactors, Indium antimonide fast semiconductors, and coal liquefaction/bio fuels using nuclear heat. It would not only eliminate our dependence on foreign oil, it would stabilize the economy for several generations.

I'm not a fan of using batteries to replace internal combustion. I would rather focus on fusion, or the production of artificial oil.
