electric plane Alia, developed by Beta Technologies, took off from Plattsburgh International Airport in New York and landed in Bentonville, the last stop of its approximately 1-week route. Within the scope of its mission, the plane traveled 2250 km.
Will expand the charging network
The Alia, an electric aircraft with a wingspan of 15 meters, reached the skies some time ago after nearly 3 years of development. In the new tests carried out in the past days, flights were carried out between 7 different places. Flying at distances ranging from 340km to 255km, Alia stayed in the air for a total of 12 hours.
Google Assistant may soon recognize users’ voice
Beta Technologies, which will soon increase the number of active charging stations to 60, wants to create a charging network that will be ready to support existing electric transportation modes. The company is also working on vertical takeoff and landing versions of Alia.
