00:13It's a bit gusty there, it looks like. There we go.
00:17With that, this concludes our flight.
00:21You witnessed history today.
00:24We call this wing-borne, and what that means is why we fly on the wing versus just keeping it
00:31up like a helicopter.
00:33Because when it's on the wing, the aircraft generates lift.
00:37I'm a pilot. I spent 20 years operating out of JFK as a JetBlue pilot, so I'm quite familiar with
00:42this area.
00:44And with lift, that means that the batteries don't have to produce as much power for the propellers because the
00:51wings are holding it up.
00:52It gives us further duration, and furthermore, it's quieter.
