THAT IS JUST GREAT ! ! ! BUT WHAT TYPE OF ENGINE DOES
THE AIRCRAFT HAVE ? IS IT A PISTON ENGINE WITH PROPELLOR,
OR A TURBINE ENGINE ? THE FUEL CELL PRODUCES HYDROGEN
FOR FUEL , BUT THERE MUST BE SOME KIND OF DEVICE TO USE
THE FUEL .

The aircraft in this article has a hydrogen fuel cell stack, which produces electricity by combining the hydrogen in it's fuel tanks with oxygen in the air. The electricity is then used to run an electric motor that turns it's prop. Hydrogen can also be burned like oil derived fuels in an internal combustion engine, but like all ICEs, the energy lost in the process through friction and unutilized heat make it highly inefficient. The fuel cell application is two to three times more efficient than engines burning fuel, whatever that fuel might be.
