Electric Training Aircraft Manufacturer Bye Aerospace Begins Initial Build of First eFlyer 2
Denver, Colorado – Bye Aerospace has officially launched the construction of its first all-electric aircraft, the eFlyer 2. This significant project aims to fabricate and assemble an all-composite structure, validate approved design plans, and establish innovative production processes. The outcome will be a full-scale aircraft that will undergo extensive aerodynamic testing derisking the remaining certification compliance tasks. This milestone aircraft, Serial Number 00001, is being assembled at Bye Aerospace’s facilities at Centennial Airport, located in Denver, Colorado.
