AILEC

AILEC, a French non-profit association, promotes and develops solutions for electric propulsion on light aircraft, primarily Ultra-light Motorised (ULM) vehicles, with headquarters in France.

Here are key aspects of the company:

• Products & Services: The organization has developed three main aircraft projects including a 3-axis monoplane, a pendulum monoplane, and an assistance motorization for hot air balloons, alongside a new electroplane project launched in October 2016.
• Industries: AILEC focuses on the aviation sector, specifically targeting light aircraft and electric propulsion technologies within the French region Centre and nationwide.
• Operations: The association actively participates in numerous exhibitions such as those in Blois and Le Bourget, organizes an aeronautical camp for youth featuring flight instruction and amateur construction, and collaborates with groups like Vieux Deb's.

Founded in 2013 by Bruno Sohier, Thomas Joron, and Jérémy Merdy following initiatives from the IUT of Chartres, AILEC continues to advance electric aviation through student-led projects and public engagement events.
