The reputable name in aerospace manufacturing industry Aero Electric Aircraft Corp. (AEAC) is on the verge of diving in to the next development phase of crafting the “sun flyer”, a state-of-the-art solar-electric training airplane technology that will create ground-breaking jolts in the entire aerospace manufacturing industry.
The company is working on this project by executing preliminary research and development for the testing flight in association with Bye Aerospace: an expert in producing solar-electric technology named ‘solar-electric technology demonstrator’ at Centennial Airport near Denver.
The single-seat technology demonstrator, which is the inspiration in making the sun flyer, made its first appearance at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh in late July. As reported by official statistics, the flight’s trial assessment would probably require six to eight months, whereas the two-seater archetype Sun flyer is getting assembled as we read this.
The Chief executive of AEAC, George Bye stated that, the early testing upshots of Sun flyer unveils great benefits as per our specific expectations, the incursion of low operating cost is what exactly Solar-electric impulsion is all about. Added benefits for extremely low operating cost is due to the smaller number of moving parts, tamed noise flights and installed solar recharging devices on the ground as well as in flight; are some of the value added benefits that are rooted with the technology.
Moreover, “the response and appreciation portrayed by the aviation community is enough to boost the morale level,” views shared by George Bye. In addition, “Most of the feedbacks we receive on account of Sun Flyer are that, this new revolution in the aerospace alternative is comparably more viable and handy from both economical and operational standpoints. The solar-electric Sun Flyer is predictably a true reflector of an aviation based product - a critical block buster training aircraft when general aviation needs it the most!”
The “Target marketing” strategy of AEAC is mainly based on approaching flight schools where “Sun Flyer”, solar electric jet planes will be used for training, leisure and general aviation purposes. The company is also looking to build strategic alliance with Redbird Flight Simulations and Spartan Aeronautical College in order to provide a wide-ranging flight simulation for an effective training system.
Sun Flyer is certainly a unique invention and a great technological art, which will set a new benchmark in airplane manufacturing industry by putting stocky funds in R&D department for brushing up the solar-electric aerospace industry.
