    Learn to fly in the fully electric Pipistrel Velis Electro for €1,800 incl VAT.

    On a PPL license, it has always stated that one can fly with a single-engine piston (SEP or piston engine). Since 2021, it is also possible to follow a difference training within the SEP class rating, after which you are allowed to fly electric aircraft. Currently, the Pipistrel Velis Electro is the only aircraft in the world with EASA certification. There are already about 100 flying around, and this number is increasing very quickly.
