Aura Aero has unveiled a revised configuration for its 19-passenger ERA hybrid-electric regional airliner, for which it says the design is now frozen. At a press conference on May 12, the French start-up also said it has completed ground testing of the prototype for its Integral E electric training aircraft and expects to be ready to start flight testing before the end of this year.
The two-seat Integral E model, powered by Safran’s EngineUs electric motor, is expected to have a flight endurance of 60 minutes, with batteries that can be fully recharged in less than 30 minutes. It is expected to be certified under European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) CS-23 rules and ready to enter service, mainly with flight schools and aero clubs, in 2024.
