Show us this "new" regulation.

You know how to copy and paste.

Don't post a link. If YOU know I'm wrong about Joby HAVING to fly less than 100 miles, why didn't you post THAT regulation, instead 
of posting a bunch of links with 1000s of words and links within links?

Because YOU couldn't find it!

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL 

Instead of letting the Internet do your J-O-B, post the EXACT regulation that proves me wrong.

I won't hold my breath.

I will grant you this... IF all of Joby's trips are going to be TO a place that has charging capabilities FOR their Aircraft (they 
are THEIR aircraft... right? LOL), then yes, Joby might be able to fly >100 miles.

But, what if there is no charging equipment where they're flying to?


One-Way Trip without a Charging Station at the Destination

This is, of course, for a trip at 100mph, not 200mph, so the figures would be different for 200mph.

Using your example of an aircraft with a 150-mile total capacity (100-mile range + 50-mile reserve), and assuming a cruising speed 
of 100 mph, here are the maximum trip distances the FAA would permit:

The maximum one-way trip would be approximately 58 miles.

This allows for:

    58 miles to the destination (same going back)

    58 miles to an alternate airport (assuming the alternate is the same distance away).

    33 miles for the 20-minute FAA-mandated reserve.

    Total = 149 miles (within the 150-mile total capacity)

That's cutting it close. Hope that landing gear can take an emergency landing!

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition

All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.

"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has been driven effectively insane due to their dislike 
of Donald Trump, to the point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."

Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into 
three distinct phases or stages:

"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm, 
as if 140 characters were all it took to change the world."

"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting 
solely of hyperbole."

"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from reality."

The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk opposition from liberals to anything and everything 
Trump does. If Trump announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would suggest he was up to something 
nefarious, according to the logic of TDS. There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be received 
positively by TDSers.

The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early 2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was a 
punch line for late-night comics and nothing more.

Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first coined by the late conservative columnist Charles 
Krauthammer back in 2003. The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people in 
reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay - the very existence of George W. Bush."
