İlk Tamamen Elektrikli Ticari Uçak Uçuşu
2019
year
Harbour Air completed the first all-electric commercial aircraft flight on December 10, 2019, using a converted DHC-2 de Havilland Beaver.
Açıklama
The flight took off from the Fraser River in Vancouver, Canada, powered by a magni500 electric propulsion system developed by magniX. While the flight lasted only a few minutes, it demonstrated that electric aviation is technically feasible for short-haul routes. Harbour Air plans to convert its entire fleet of seaplanes to electric power for routes across British Columbia's coastal islands.
