EcoPulse results suggest a bright future for hybrid-electric aviation
On a chilly day in mid-December, key stakeholders gathered together at a Daher hangar in Tarbes, in southwest France, to bid adieu to the EcoPulse demonstrator during a livestream wrap-up.
A distributed hybrid-propulsion aircraft demonstrator, EcoPulse was designed and developed jointly by Airbus, Daher and Safran. Leaders from all three companies were on stage to share their perspectives on the programme, including Airbus’ own Jean-Baptiste Manchette, Head of Propulsion of Tomorrow.
