Electric aircraft promise quiet, efficient flight training, yet their real-world endurance still falls short of what pilots and flight schools actually need. What does it take to fly a full PPL training mission electrically – without compromises or nervous glances at the remaining charge? This presentation explores the key constraints behind endurance in electric aviation and Milan’s engineering approach to make two hours of truly usable flight time both possible and affordable.
