Utah Department Of Transportation Launches uFLY Initiative
The Utah Department of Transportation has launched its uFLY initiative with the first demonstration flight of a hybrid-electric aircraft in Utah. Ampaire’s EEL hybrid aircraft traveled between Salt Lake City International Airport and Cedar City Regional Airport, marking a significant milestone in the development of emerging aviation technologies. The uFLY program is designed to provide a real-world proving ground for testing and evaluating these technologies, with the goal of safely integrating them into the National Airspace System. This initiative was first reported by Charged EVs.
