In The News Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Siemens completed the first public flight of its hybrid-electric motor, which is installed in an Extra 330LE aerobatic airplane, last week, from an airfield near Dinslaken, Germany. "The first flight of our propulsion system is a milestone on the road to electrification of aviation," said Siegfried Russwurm, chief technology officer for Seimens. "To continue this journey successfully, we need disruptive ideas and the courage to take risks." Siemens says the success of this design means "hybrid-electric aircraft with four or more seats will now be possible."
