All-Electric Alice Aircraft Makes First Flight as Eviation Delays Entry Into Service – FutureFlight

Visit AIN’s new resource for all the news on developing aviation technology. The recent first flight of the Alice nine-passenger aircraft from Moses Lake Airport in Washington marks the start of Eviation’s flight test campaign to prepare the all-electric model for regional airline service. Due to limitations in current battery technology, Eviation has reduced the projected range to 250 from 440 nm (in VFR day conditions). The company also needs more time to complete type certification, and first deliveries are now anticipated in 2027.
