Aircraft sales broker Global Sky has agreed to purchase 15 of VoltAero’s Cassio hybrid-electric aircraft. The memorandum of understanding, signed on Monday, would make Singapore-based Global Sky the launch customer for the French start-up’s vehicle.

VoltAero is developing three members of the Cassio family, with seating capacities ranging from five to 12 passengers. The aircraft could serve a variety of regional air services, freight deliveries, and emergency medical support.

The aircraft is powered by a combination of Safran’s EngineUs 100 electric motor mounted in the aft fuselage and an internal combustion engine. Operating in all-electric mode, the range would be limited to around 82 nautical miles. However, its range would increase when flying on engine power, which also recharges the batteries.
