Electric Aircraft Demonstrates Zero-Emission Crop Spraying Capability
A commercial-scale demonstration of zero-emission crop spraying using electric aircraft is planned in California, involving Pyka’s autonomous Pelican 2 aircraft. The project, backed by the California government, aims to showcase the capabilities of electric aircraft in agriculture. According to Aviation Week, the demonstration is part of the California Zero-Emission Aviation Demonstration Project, which may pave the way for wider adoption of sustainable aviation solutions in the industry.
