Congratulations to the Bremerton Aviation Center for Education (BACE) of Bremerton, Washington whose Zaero Electric powered Xenos (S/N X0030) flew for the first time on February 5th! The aircraft was built by students participating in the BACE youth education program and is owned by a group of approximately 15 EAA Chapter 406 members. “The building where we built it has a simulator room with the VW powered version that stays pretty busy,” writes co-owner George Steed, “The building also has a bank of solar panels. At last count we’d sent 1900 kwh to the grid. We figure it will take 15 kwh to recharge our eXenos. We should be able to fly forever, for free.” See more information about this build in an August, 2025 article. Gold Wings are on the way!
