The U.S. National Aeronautic Association (NAA) has opened the registration process for teams wanting to compete in a race for electric-powered aircraft. From May 22 to 25, 2023, the first Pulitzer Electric Aircraft Race will follow a 1,000-nm route from Eppeley Airfield (KOMA) in Omaha, Nebraska, to Dare County Regional Airport (KMQI) near Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.
The competition is open to any piloted heavier-than-air aircraft using zero-emissions electric propulsion systems, including batteries, hydrogen fuel cells, and solar panels. This could include fixed-wing airplanes (among them, new eSTOL aircraft), helicopters, and eVTOL vehicles. The event is open to models that are already type-certified as well as those covered by experimental licenses.
