Abstract
This study examined US consumers' willingness to fly in an electric aircraft and an aircraft with an internal combustion engine for either one hour or 30-minute flight durations. The participants were provided with four different scenarios: electric engine 30-minute flight, electric aircraft one hour, combustion engine 30 minute, and combustion engine one hour. The scenarios were delivered in a random order to avoid order effects, and each flight scenario explained that the weather was clear and calm and had a knowledgeable pilot. The U.S. Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk) consumers' willingness to fly showed no significant differences between type of engine or duration of flight. On average, the participants were willing to fly in electric aircraft, which is promising for the aviation industry.
