An electric aircraft powered and recharged by multiple redundant independent charging systems to ensure extended operation of the aircraft during normal operations. All systems are configured as electrical machine generators responsive to kinetic energy for generating electricity and are operatively combined to provide a constant high volume of charge sufficient to sustain operation of the aircraft for great distances and speeds. This means that this long-range aircraft can fly nonstop for almost 8 hours. The multiple redundant independent charging systems includes three advanced kinetic energy recovery systems including: a Paddlewheel Air Brake system, an Air Turbine with Exhaust Cone Generator system, and a Blade Rotors generation system and a first fly-by-wire aircraft to aircraft midair recharging system. The power from each machine system is routed to a smart charge combiner, a smart high-voltage ultracapacitor storage system, then the aircraft or battery bank under control of a smart charge controller.
