The e-Go aircraft is flying

In front of a large invited audience, the e-Go prototype took to the skies of Norfolk on Wednesday 30th October for its official First Flight. For e-Go, to be able to build an aircraft with the required weight and mechanical performance, the use of TeXtreme® Spread Tow carbon fabrics was essential. On certain parts, the weight saving is as much as 53%.
