Electra claims that its aircraft will be able to operate from airfields as small as 92 x 31 m and suggests that it could even <strong>land on the roof of some buildings<\/strong>. Although these aircraft will not offer as many operating locations as eVTOLs, their flexibility remains remarkably high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, investors are excited to note that this aircraft performs largely like a conventional aircraft, meaning that the path to certification and commercial deployment should be more straightforward and easier to navigate, with many precedents and fewer unknowns compared to the teams of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/first-evtol-without-a-pilot-license-in-us\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"130048\">eVTOL<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to note that Electra has already conducted test flights with a two-seat prototype in November and will continue flight testing while working on a full-scale, nine-seat prototype that is scheduled to fly in 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company is targeting <strong>certification and entry into service by 2028<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thats not all! It appears that the market is paying attention, as Electra has received <strong>pre-orders for more than 2,000 aircraft, valued at more than $8 billion<\/strong>. This far exceeds the largest pre-seller in the eVTOL field, Vertical Aerospace, which has pre-sold 1,500 aircraft for a total of more than $5 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Don&#8217;t miss any of our posts and follow us on social media!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Inspenet.com<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@inspenet\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">YouTube<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/inspenetnetwork\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LinkedIn<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/inspenetnetwork\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Facebook<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/inspenet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Source and photo: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.watoday.com.au\/national\/western-australia\/woodside-s-scarborough-pipeline-broken-in-dangerous-offshore-incident-20240130-p5f141.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a>newatlas.com<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Video: Electra<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Isbel Lazaro, February 21, 2024.<br \/>\nElectra, in collaboration with Flyv, is exploring the still existing demand for more conventional electric aircraft with its hybrid-electric short take-off and landing (STOL) aircraft, which promises to carry nine passengers, a pilot and luggage, up to 805 km.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8403,"featured_media":131219,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"footnotes":""},"categoria_noticias":[13064,13030],"etiqueta_noticias":[],"class_list":["post-131231","noticias","type-noticias","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","categoria_noticias-aerospace","categoria_noticias-industry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/131231","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/noticias"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8403"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=131231"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/131231\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/131219"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=131231"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"categoria_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categoria_noticias?post=131231"},{"taxonomy":"etiqueta_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/etiqueta_noticias?post=131231"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
