Eviation Lands More Customers as Electric Plane Orders Top 150

Electric-plane startup Eviation Aircraft Ltd. says it has signed up two more customers for its pioneering commuter aircraft, taking the order backlog to more than 150 planes.

Both buyers are American and are recognized names in the aviation industry, Chief Executive Officer Omer Bar-Yohay said Thursday in an interview, declining to name them before formal announcements early next year.
