NEBOair are actively involved in sustainable aviation initiatives partnering with training schools in the country currently using this model. Airbourne Aviation Limited , Popham Saxon Air Charter Ltd , Norwich Moray Flying Club , RAF Lossiemouth Almat Flying Academy , Coventry and Synergy Aviation Ltd at Fair Oaks to be the latest to add a Velis to their impressive fleet. We are dedicated to the Decarbonisation of Pilot Training by forming partnerships with flying schools and clubs throughout the UK. This initiative is crucial for integrating the Pipistrel Aircraft Velis Electro into flight training programs and is key to advancing sustainable aviation in the UK. I engage directly with the CAA to support and encourage the inclusion of the Velis into Flight Training , as it is a fully certified aircraft, for pilot training and the CAA have been brilliant. We must all remember it is designed as a Circuit Trainer! The Velis Electro, being a fully electric aircraft, reduces emissions by eliminating the need for conventional aviation fuels. Its operation results in zero direct CO2 emissions, contributing to cleaner skies, more sustainable aviation practices and represents a shift towards greener, more efficient technology in the aviation industry. We try to promote ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) as it is crucial for companies as it reflects their commitment to sustainable and ethical practices. This commitment can enhance a company's reputation, attract investors and customers who prioritise sustainability, and mitigate risks associated with environmental and social issues. ESG practices are increasingly important in today's business landscape for long-term success and resilience. Existing pilots can take Differences Training over a number of flights with a certified Flight Instructor, and all pilots whether new or established must carry out a Ground School. There is no E PPL, there is no need for an E PPL at this stage, but what the Velis Electro does is offer Emission Free Flight as an introduction to the skies, as well as hour building, revalidations and ab inito training. In conjunction the SW121 / Explorer it offers the Greenest / Cleanest route to a PPL or LAPL. Please do reach out to us to find your closest airfield offering Electric Flight.
