The record-setting propulsion system completed its first public flight on July 4 2016, at Schwarze Heide Airport near Dinslaken, Germany, where it – almost silently – powered an Extra 330LE aerobatic airplane. In the video, aerobatic flight champion Walter Extra tries to take the world-record motor to its limits.

Why Tomorrow’s Aircraft Will Be Hybrids
Aviation needs to take a page out of the automotive industry playbook for faster progress on reducing emissions. By creating a dual-propulsion system—part internal combustion, part electric—the industry has a shot of lowering emissions, despite rising air travel demand.
