The Dash 7 that will be modified into a hybrid electric research vehicle under NASA\u2019s Electrified Powertrain Flight Demonstration (EPFD) project on display with its new livery for the first time. In front of the plane is an electric powertrain that magniX will integrate into the current aircraft to build a hybrid electric propulsion system.<\/div>\n

In a special unveiling ceremony on Aug. 22, 2024, the public received a first look at magniX\u2019s Dash 7 aircraft that will serve as a testbed for sustainable aviation research with NASA\u2019s Electrified Powertrain Flight Demonstration (EPFD)<\/a> project.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hosted by magniX at King County International Airport, commonly known as Boeing Field, in Seattle, Washington, leaders from NASA and magniX unveiled the research vehicle in its new livery. \u00a0<\/p>\n

EPFD is a collaboration between NASA and industry to demonstrate the capabilities of electrified aircraft propulsion<\/a> technologies in reducing emissions for future commercial aircraft in mid-2030s. \u00a0<\/p>\n

As part of this demonstration, magniX will modify the Dash 7 with a new hybrid electric system to conduct ground and flight tests. NASA will use data gathered from these tests to identify and minimize barriers in certifying these new technologies and help inform new standards and regulations for future electrified aircraft. \u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are a research organization that continues to advance aviation, solve the problems of flight, and lead the community into the future,\u201d said Robert A. Pearce, associate administrator for NASA\u2019s Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate. \u201cThrough our EPFD project, we\u2019re taking big steps in partnership to make sure electric aviation is part of the future of commercial flight.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

With the aircraft livery complete, magniX will begin the process of converting the Dash 7 into a research testbed with a hybrid electric propulsion system. Flight tests with the new system are planned for 2026.<\/p>\n
