This historic\nachievement marked the start of a new phase in the development of the Alice.\nEviation is now focused on its certification program on the way to completing\nEntry into Service (EIS). Customers for the Alice so far include U.S. regional\nairlines Cape Air and Global Crossing and German airline operator EVIA AERO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/Eviation_aliceV2_Render09_Cityscape-edit.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23902\" width=\"322\" height=\"227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Eviation_aliceV2_Render09_Cityscape-edit.png 600w, https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Eviation_aliceV2_Render09_Cityscape-edit-300x212.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 322px) 100vw, 322px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Our order book passing the US$ 2 billion mark is a\nsignificant commercial milestone,&#8221; said Gregory Davis, President and CEO\nof Eviation. &#8220;This success demonstrates that the Alice is leading the\nindustry and meeting the market demand for zero-carbon flight. We are already\nseeing a growing clamour from passengers for sustainable aviation, matched by\nan increasingly robust attitude from regulators. By ordering the Alice, our\nforward-thinking customers are positioning themselves wisely for the\nfuture.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Alice, built from a clean-sheet design around\nall-electric propulsion, produces no carbon emissions and costs significantly\nless to operate per flight hour compared to light jets or high-end turboprops.\nThe aircraft is also quieter than combustion engine aircraft, allowing more\nflights into cities and communities where noise is a factor. Together, these\ndevelopments promise to usher in a new era of low-cost point-to-point travel,\nreshaping the commuter and regional air market. Alice is powered by two\nmagni650 electric propulsion units developed by magniX, the global industry\nleader in flight-proven electric propulsion systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/Eviation_aliceV2_Render04_2021-08-23-edit.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23903\" width=\"286\" height=\"143\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Eviation_aliceV2_Render04_2021-08-23-edit.png 500w, https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Eviation_aliceV2_Render04_2021-08-23-edit-300x150.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 286px) 100vw, 286px\" \/><figcaption><em>Cargo variant<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;With almost 300 aircraft now on order, the Alice is\nreceiving strong customer endorsement.
