ABSTRACT:
A motor-generator powered airplane is provided and consists of an internal combustion engine that drives an electric generator. Two transformers are electrically connected to the generator and are each electrically connected to an electric motor. Each electric motor drives a propeller so that the airplane can fly. An emergency battery is connected between the generator and the transformers so that in case of a failure of the engine the battery will supply electricity to continue operation of the electric motors.
