FlyOnE has introduced Australia’s first commercial pilot training program that utilizes an electric aircraft. This marks a significant advancement in sustainable aviation education.

The Skycademy™ platform represents a comprehensive training pathway that combines electric-powered flight instruction with conventional pilot certification, offering students exposure to emerging aviation technologies while meeting standard licensing requirements. Based in Western Australia, the decarbonized commercial pilot training program leverages the region’s favorable flying conditions — from the expansive airspace to the predictable weather patterns — to provide consistent training opportunities with reduced environmental impact. The curriculum is specifically designed to prepare pilots for the growing urban air mobility sector. Skycademy™ incorporates both the Pipistrel Alpha Electro electric trainer and low-emission conventional aircraft to bridge current industry needs with future-oriented skills development.
