- Less step changes with airframes as pack improvements smooth progress jumps
- How did tesla software changes break auto paradigms
- Practical takeaway for an operator • Plan on a pack refresh every 3–4 years and apower-unitrefresh every 8–10, with measurable performance and utilization gains each cycle. • Treat your airplane like a platform:performance is a moving target during the steep S-curve unlike combustion fleets where block fuel barely budges post-EIS. Optimize mission design (stage length, reserves, alternates, charge windows) alongside hardware; software + ops can deliver 10–15% effective gains with 0 mass change.
