Harbour Air is looking to move to an electric fleet of float planes

The company has announced a partnership with magniX.

The first aircraft to be converted will be the DHC-2 de Havilland Beaver, a six-passenger commercial aircraft used across Harbour Air’s route network.

Harbour Air and magniX expect to conduct their first flight tests of the all-electric aircraft in late 2019.

Harbour Air has 42 planes and 12 routes, and operates from centres such as Victoria, Vancouver and Seattle.

It is North America’s largest seaplane airline, serving 500,000 passengers on 30,000 commercial flights every year.
