About the Pipistrel Velis Electro

The Pipistrel Velis Electro holds the distinction of being the world’s first type-certified fully electric aircraft (EASA). Based on the Virus airframe, it’s designed primarily for flight training, offering extremely quiet operation and significantly lower running costs compared to piston aircraft. Its endurance is limited (around 50 minutes plus reserve), making it ideal for circuit training and short local flights.
