In 2024, the FAA granted Pipistrel's Velis Electro a light-sport aircraft (LSA) airworthiness exemption, offering a lower-cost and more sustainable learning platform for student pilots. In 2020, Pipistrel’s Velis Electro became the world’s first, and currently only, electric aircraft to receive full type-certification from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). This achievement followed a series of electric aircraft introductions since the company began research and development of electric propulsion in 2000. Pipistrel’s pioneering work has been recognized through awards from NASA, IDC, and other organizations. The company, which offers a family of gliders and light aircraft with both electric and combustion engines, has delivered more than 2,500 light aircraft worldwide since its founding in 1989 and additionally has both hybrid and electric propulsion models under development.

Day 1 at EAA's #OSH24 was electrifying!⚡Don't miss out on more excitement — swing by booth 78 tomorrow for a firsthand look at the future of aviation! #FutureofFlight #Oshkosh
We recently had the opportunity to host eight Politecnico di Milano students from the Flight Experimentation class as part of their master’s degree in Aeronautical Engineering. During their time at Pipistrel, these future aviation leaders got hands-on with every aspect of flight — from planning to flying to data collection and analysis. The students had the chance to experience our innovative Velis Electro, the world’s first, and currently only, type certified all-electric airplane, as well as the Explorer, one of the most capable and economic aircraft in the light sport category. The future of aviation is bright, and we're thrilled to inspire and support the next generation of aviators. #FutureofFlight #AviationEducation #VelisElectro #Pipistrel
