We are building a hybrid aircraft to connect cities with high speed door-to-door transportation, without train/airport infrastructure.

It’s a powered 55-seater auto gyro - an electric helicopter during take-off and landing and a conventional turboprop regional “plane” during flight. We are at a “works on paper, let’s start prototyping” phase: basic assumptions are verified by people from industry, a development plan is in place.

My co-founder is an experienced high-power electric propulsion engineer and he’s currently developing our power train. I am in charge of the business/operations/relationships side. We are currently looking for a third co-founder to lead aircraft design.
