Eviation’s nine-seat aircraft could be flying within weeks – if the prototype is operational, it will not only reduce environmental impact, but also make the aircraft cheaper to operate.
It needs to be partially modified on Eviation’s electric aircraft, the Alice, whose development program is also hampered by a battery lit in the prototype.
Eviation startup has unveiled its all-electric regional aircraft at the Paris Air Show, which is scheduled to be licensed by 2021 if the money is available.
