How is Air Force One started? I know big planes don't have keys, but this is Air Force One. Shouldn't there be a key/code, something?

Was I telling you the other day about forklift batteries? The battery in my forklift at work weighs between 2,900 and 3,900 pounds. The forklift itself not counting the battery weighs about 8,500 pounds.

Of course, forklifts don't fly, so they can be heavy. In fact, they need to be heavy to do their job. Aircraft need to be light. I think that's why you won't see practical full-sized electric aircraft anytime soon.

But technology is advancing so batteries can be lighter and have more energy capacity so it is still possible.
