Scylax from Germany which is\ndeveloping a 10 seat short range electric twin engine aircraft and demonstrate\nthat with the existing technology is possible to step in the area of commercial\nelectric transportation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
announce today that the operator FLN FRISIA-Luftverkehr GmbH\nNorddeich joined as new shareholder with the goal to bring their practical\nairliner experience in the development and certification of the new aircraft in\norder to replace their existing 10 aircraft with the new E10. FNS Frisia\nconnects with their aircraft the North Sea German islands .<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Together with FLN we redefined the aircraft in order to fulfil the airliner\nrequirements:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– short takeoff and landing<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– landing with strong cross wind<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– robust construction with fix landing gear<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– low noise<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With the existing battery technology we can cover emission\nfree ( CO2 and noise) a 300 km leg. In about 10 Years more than\n600 km.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The plan is to have in 3 years a demonstrator which will be in the first\nphase used by Frisia for Ireland freight , than complete full EASA CS23\ncertification in max. 8 Years from now. We know that the certification process\nfor such an electric aircraft is very complex. That\u2019s why we fix a realistic\ncertification goal. Of course we will do the best to finish the Certification\nsooner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We concentrate now for raising the investment needed for the demonstrator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
