Experimental Electric 4-passenger plane at Hollister!


Friday and Saturday flights included those of this Pipistrel Taurus G4:

It is built to carry four passengers but for these test flights only the test-pilot Dave Morss flew in the plane.



With two of the mechanics from its birthplace, Slovenia, walking the wings, Dave taxis the Taurus F4 to the runway for takeoff:
