Sealand Flight is offering a contest for Canada's first commercial electric flight in Campbell River
On June 14, Sealand's Pipistrel Velis Electro will take flight for an introductory flight lesson. It will be the first time a person can purchase a commercial flight on an electric aircraft in Canada. The student will be allowed to operate the aircraft under the guidance of the flight instructor.
Sealand Flight is hosting a contest to find a person for the training flight.
Those little electric Pipistrels have been getting more common for instruction and pattern work down here for a bit too. I’m told they’re great fun if you just need to do a lot of sub hour flights every day.
