US$145,000 Elektra One and SunAirport hangar take recreational flying off-the-grid

PC-Aero's composite-construction, single-seat Elektra One electric Ultralight is one of the most efficient transportation devices ever conceived. It can fly for three hours, cruise at 160 km/h and has a 500 km range. The Elektra One's “SunAirport” hangar incorporates photovoltaic cells, providing zero emissions power for both the aircraft and hangar which will be sold together for less than EUR100,000 (US$145,000) from 2012. Significantly, the company's grand vision for taking recreational flying off-the-grid has just won it the Lindbergh Prize for Electric Aircraft.
