ZERO- CARBON
A new aircraft concept is in the making as soon to be tested out. The mission is to make the first carbon free flight by June 2016. The Eroale is a light, solar, biofuel, and has been in the making since 2009. The engine is electric and fed by solar panels found on its wings. Oil made from micro-algae is being used to power the aircraft one Dinelli had been in search for for two years. Composite materials have been used to lighten the weight and 20% of the power will come from gliding. It brings physical challenges to the pilot, but those are challenges willing to be accepted.
