Electra plans to flight test a full-scale hybrid eSTOL tech demonstrator, which will be used to provide data and operational experience to support and reduce risks in certification, next year. Randy Griffith will steer the way.
HAL is building on its role as a major manufacturing partner in the Dornier 228 program by developing its own locally-produced variant - the Hindustan-228. Ground testing began on a day of celebration for the country.
Agricultural spray drone-maker Pyka has spent over four years working on a larger aircraft for cargo and passenger missions. Now it has appointed former Ford man Dan Grossman to preside over its development.
Overair's engineers have emerged from the shadows and laid out plans for an innovative eVTOL aircraft, named Butterfly in recognition of its two sets of wings. Its relatively slow props should produce little noise.
