ongoing

South Australia will be home to Australia’s first commercially produced electric aircraft, with Adelaide based Bader Aero already taking orders for their revolutionary new plane. The E22 Spark aircraft will be unveiled to the public for the first time at this weekend’s Adelaide Motorsport Festival as part of RAA’s e-motions display in Victoria Park. The company is the brainchild of Barrie Rogers, Sue Mulrayan, Gus Wrethman and Michael Monck, who have been looking to introduce electric aircraft technology to Australian skies for several years. The company has adapted a well-known European airframe and fitted it with cutting-edge electric motor technology. Chief Commercial Officer, Barrie Rogers, said the aircraft was a potential game changer for aviation in Australia, particularly for flight training.
