Daher-Socata has signed a contract with Airbus Group’s VoltAir subsidiary for the design, development and certification of the E-Fan 2.0 electric two-seater. Airbus aims to produce the E-Fan 2.0 as the world's first such aircraft, after having flown a single-seater earlier this year. Socata's remit includes the electric engine and batteries, as well as defining operational rules for ab-initio training with the French civil aviation authority.
