About Us
Industry Leading Experience
Clean Altitude is a Research and Development company formed to integrate new technology electric propulsion into the commercial aerial work industry. This specifically includes Skydiving Aircraft, and other high performance short range missions for small propeller driven aircraft such as Glider Towing, Crop Spraying and Local Air Freight. Electric propulsion is a zero emission, clean and green environmental solution, but also offers significantly enhanced performance and economics for these missions.
The company is focused on testing and developing a pure electric propulsion system into a light general aviation aircraft for experimental operation. The goal will then be to produce a commercial product for aircraft operators to retrofit into their aircraft. The electric motor, power electronics and battery system will be integrated as a turnkey certified package.
