ZeroAvia is working with San Francisco startup Verne to bring an even more energy-dense form of hydrogen to the clean aviation space. Cryo-compressed H2 could reduce costs, speed up fueling, and unlock 40% more flight range than cryogenic liquid H2.Con… Continue reading Cryo-compressed hydrogen: A 40% aircraft range boost over liquid H2
The blended-wing Natilus Kona aircraft, which is now flying in quarter-scale testing in California, is set to have a zero-emissions variant thanks to a partnership with Zeroavia, which will provide a 600 kW hydrogen-electric powertrain option.Continue … Continue reading Natilus and Zeroavia team up on hydrogen-powered blended wing aircraft
ZeroAvia’s 19-seat Dornier 228 has taken its first test flight in the UK. It’s a testbed for the company’s clean aviation technology, using a zero-emissions hydrogen-electric powertrain that’s slated for certification and commercial flights by 2025.Con… Continue reading ZeroAvia celebrates maiden flight of world’s largest hydrogen aircraft
Last April, a hydrogen-powered ZeroAvia test plane lost power and crashed during flight tests. The UK’s Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) has now completed its investigation into the incident, and confirmed that the hydrogen system was not resp… Continue reading ZeroAvia crash investigation complete: It wasn’t the hydrogen
The Celera 500L is a truly remarkable design. Otto Aviation says its odd shape delivers an astonishing 59 percent reduction in drag, and a massive leap in efficiency and range compared to traditional plane geometries. Arguably, this thing should’ve bee… Continue reading World’s most efficient passenger plane gets hydrogen powertrain
