Aura Aero’s Integral E electric two-seat aircraft has now completed 15 test flights since the French start-up started the campaign on December 3. On April 16, the company released images of the prototype aerobatic model achieving inverted flight for the first time.

Toulouse-based Aura Aero is aiming to complete EASA type certification and start deliveries of the Integral E by the end of 2026. It recently delivered the first example of the Integral R light aircraft, powered by a Lycoming piston engine, and it is also producing an Integral S tail-dragger version, for which deliveries should begin by the end of this year. The aircraft are intended for applications including aerobatics, flight training, private transportation, and glider towing.
