Flying an electric airplane with Green Flight Academy

In this video we head to Skellefteå, in the north of Sweden, to try flying an electric airplane. It’s the two-seater Pipistrel Velis Electro and it’s being used as a trainer aircraft at the brand new Green Flight Academy, a flight school that aims to remake flight training – starting with drastically reducing its emissions.

We get a look at their facilities and take the Velis Electro for a half-hour flight lesson. Can we land it on the first try?
