The eSTOL demonstrator utilizes distributed electric propulsion and hybrid-electric technology, reducing noise and emissions while enabling ultra-short take-offs and landings.
Electra plans to develop a nine-passenger variant capable of short ground rolls and high speeds, targeting certification and commercial service by 2028.
The electric hybrid aircraft manufacturer Electra has recently achieved a milestone by completing the world’s first flight of a hybrid-electric ultra short take-off and landing (eSTOL) aircraft. This achievement shows a significant step toward the adoption of technologies that have the potential to help the industry reduce its carbon footprint.
