Pipistrel Set To ‘Electrify’ Oshkosh

Displaying Extensive Aircraft Line Including Production Electric Training Aircraft

International aircraft designer and manufacturer Pipistrel Aircraft is set to truly electrify the annual EAA AirVenture Fly-In and Tradeshow in Oshkosh, WI, July 23rd through the 29th.

The company will not only be displaying an extensive group of aircraft offerings, but showing off its electrically powered training aircraft, the Pipistrel ALPHA Electro LSA – which is currently in production. The company will also have its Pipistrel Taurus Electro, one of the first two seat electric aircraft to see serial production.

In addition to the electric aircraft line, Pipistrel will be displaying the following conventional aircraft:

  • Pipistrel Virus SW, Two Place Rotax-powered High-Wing LSA
  • Pipistrel Taurus, Two Place, Self-Launching, 15 Meter Sailplane
  • Pipistrel Sinus FLEX, Multi-Purpose, Two-Pace, High Wing, Rotax-Powered LSA

Solar Trailer Unveiling
Pipistrel's Solar Trailer, which is capable of recharging your electric aircraft allowing you to “Fly for Free” via its zero cost/zero emission propulsion system, will be unveiled at AirVenture. The company is also bringing the X-Alpha VR Trainer, which Pipistrel says is the world’s first full-size, immersive VR trainer for LSA category aircraft. The simulator accurately emulates the flight characteristics and performance of several of Pipistrel’s most popular aircraft models.

Not content to leave interested flyers with inadequate details, Pipistrel has produced, for the first time, a new four-color magazine style format brochure. Greatly detailed, the 32 page publication will be available in print format at the Pipistrel display area at AirVenture, as well as selected Oshkosh locations, and also available online in digital formats.

Pipistrel will also be conducting numerous flight demonstrations of its electric aircraft during the Fly-In/Airshow and plans on conducting displays during the Manufacturer’s showcase, when opportunity presents, throughout the week.
