Participating in the flying display here at the Paris Air Show is Airbus’s E-Fan 1.0 electric aircraft, which has benefited from a number of improvements since it was on the static display here in 2013. Production of the two-seat trainer type is planned to begin in a new factory to be built in Pau, southwest France, starting in 2016. Airbus Group, through its Voltair subsidiary, is thus the first major manufacturer to join the growing number of companies that aspire to create a new, more environmentally friendly way of flying.
