The Waterloo Institute for Sustainable Aeronautics (WISA) is the first Canadian operator of the Pipistrel Velis Electro. Sealand is immensely grateful to be collaborating and learning from the research that WISA has been leading.
This summer, WISA researchers ventured to Campbell River to use PIP as a part of their latest study: How Many Hours Can Flight Schools Expect from the Pipistrel Velis Electro?
WISA pilots, Andrew and David, flew our Velis Electro as much as they possibly could each and every day to determine the comparability of this technology with a typical Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) trainer.
Their study results can be found in their blog post here: Electric Plane Performance in 2024: How Many Hours Can Flight Schools Expect from the Pipistrel Velis Electro?
