The aviation industry is aware of the emissions it generates and is not standing idly by. Hundreds of development teams around the world are working to make flying more emission-free in the future. Switzerland is playing an important role in this. The first fly-in for electric aircraft took place in Grenchen back in 2017. Pioneers from all over Europe flew (or drove) in to share their experiences. After 5 events in Grenchen, the event has grown and established itself in the scene. The Electrifly-In for hybrid and electric powered aircraft is unique in Europe and an integral part of the aviation event calendar.
It remains our ambition and mission to promote eMobility in aviation and to help shape the future of aviation in the long term. We are ambassadors of the 3rd era of aviation (piston engines, jet engines, electric engines or alternative propulsion systems).
With our event we want to present new technologies and developments, make them tangible for the population and educate them (passenger flights). We will demonstrate silent and almost emission-free flying in the sky. At the static exhibition, the innovative development teams will show their aircraft and an exchange of ideas can be sought. In the hall of the third party exhibitors there are supplier companies and it is possible to talk shop intensively.
First and foremost, we are a fly-in for aircraft from the categories HYBRID, ELECTRIC and self-launching gliders. There will be prize money and the eTrophy donated by WATERJet Aarwangen.
The varied symposium with specialist presentations attracts numerous visitors every year, including a large audience of experts. A highlight is the eTALK, which is held every year on a different exciting topic with interesting guests.
