Beta Technologies has rolled out the second Alia CX300 electric aircraft from its scaled manufacturing facility in Burlington, Vermont, the company announced on March 4. Later this year, Beta will ship that aircraft off to Norway for a series of flight demonstrations to be conducted by helicopter operator Bristow Norway, a subsidiary of its partner and customer Bristow Group.

Bristow Norway will use the Alia aircraft to ferry cargo between Stavanger Airport and Bergen Airport starting in the third quarter this year, according to Beta. Initial demonstration flights at Stavanger Airport expected to begin in late summer.
