Electric aircraft: 10 types from A to Z
This part of the CatchFlights aircraft directory lists 10 electric aircraft types: electric trainers and self-launching gliders. Types are grouped the way ICAO's list of aircraft type designators (Doc 8643) describes them — by how they are built and powered, not by what they are used for — so types built for very different jobs share a page. 1 of them were seen by the receiver networks CatchFlights uses in the last 30 days.
Seen most often in the last 30 days
- Pipistrel Velis Electro 8 airframes
Different airframes of each type the receiver networks saw in the 30 days up to 6 October 2026. Aircraft outside receiver range, or without a transponder that broadcasts, are not counted, so the real numbers are higher.
