The Electra Ultra Short isn't just another far-fetched electric aircraft concept, it's a hybrid-electric STOL aircraft that’s already flown and could redefine regional air travel. In this video, we explore how its unique propulsion system, aerodynamic innovations, and real-world practicality might give it a serious edge over conventional aircraft, and even challenge helicopters in certain roles. Could this be the aircraft that brings short-field, low-emission flight into the 21st century?
