electric wheelchairs

hi all, i am considering buying a folding electric wheelchair , after research i find lots of chairs with really good ranges from their lithium batteries , but what is anoying is that if you want to fly with your wheelchair you can only take one battery not 2 , as the civil aviation authority havent caught up with the latest batteries sizes so you can take your wheelchair but it will only go half the distance it will in this country. the C.A.A. NEED TO CATCH UP!
@Stumbler

@hank , I agree, the CAA do need to catch up with the times. Have you had a word with the the MS Society Helpline on 0808 800 8000. They might have a view on this. Even SCOPE, https://www.scope.org.uk/ , (0808 800 3333) may be interested in taking up this issue...........
