MONTE and Eviation Sign Deal For Up To 30 All-Electric Alice Aircraft
The title of this post, is the same as that of this press release from MONTE.
These are the first two paragraphs.
MONTE is delighted to announce that it has entered into a Letter of Intent with Eviation, a leader in clean-sheet, all-electric aviation, to purchase up to 30 all-electric Alice Aircraft.
The Alice is a clean-sheet design, 9-seater aircraft built with industry leading MagniX electric propulsion systems. It is the only flight proven all-electric aircraft of its size. MONTE will provide financing and leasing solutions for the Alice and its associated charging infrastructure to its global customer base of regional aircraft operators.
My experience includes.
- As an engineer, experimenting with battery-powered rechargeable instruments in the 1960s.
- As a pilot, I have over a thousand hours in command of a Cessna 340A, which was powered by two piston engines.
- As a driver, I have owned and driven some of Colin Chapman’s composite masterpieces.
- As a financier, I have owned half of a finance company that leased large trucks.
The Alice may look futuristic, but it is based on proven engineering, manufacturing and aviation principles.
My leasing experience, leads me to believe, that leasing these aircraft could be a sound business.
I am looking forward to my first flight.
