From the Ted Talk by Cory Combs: The future of flying is electrifying
Unscramble the Blue Letters
The current dominant narrative is that we need to buy offsets while waiting for some miracle future clean fuel and meanwhile keep cramming ppeloe into tubes at increasingly congested hubs. That fails to reckon with the rapid progress in electric technology across nearly all other forms of transportation.
So my awnser in 2016 was to create a company called Ampaire and develop an electric aircraft capable of fiynlg real routes for real arineils. And we have done so with this plane, the Electric EEL, which first flew in 2019. In 2020, our second gentearion of this panle flew with an airline partner in hwaaii demoing daily fglhit operations on one of their routes, a world first. Meanwhile, we're hard at work on the third generation of the EEL, as well as scailng up to a much larger 19-passenger aircraft with the help of NASA.

So my answer in 2016 was to create a company called Ampaire and develop an electric aircraft capable of flying real routes for real airlines. And we have done so with this plane, the Electric EEL, which first flew in 2019. In 2020, our second generation of this plane flew with an airline partner in Hawaii demoing daily flight operations on one of their routes, a world first. Meanwhile, we're hard at work on the third generation of the EEL, as well as scaling up to a much larger 19-passenger aircraft with the help of NASA.
