Abstract
A method and system for ground-based thermal conditioning of an electric aircraft. The system includes an electric aircraft, an onboard thermal conditioning module on the electric aircraft, and a ground-based thermal conditioning module connected to the onboard thermal conditioning module. Liquid coolant runs through the ground-based thermal conditioning module to the onboard thermal conditioning module. Ground-based thermal conditioning module purges the coolant from the onboard thermal conditioning module. The ground-based thermal conditioning module is disconnected from the onboard thermal conditioning module.
