The first episode of Saturday Startup Stories featuring Magpie Aviation is live!
Both alumni of Makani and Kitthyawk, cofounders Damon Vander Lind and Andrew Goessling are working to develop a truly 0 carbon solution for flight, by towing electric aircraft with other electric aircraft.
At a time when the aviation industry is under sharp criticism for its carbon emissions, Beyond Aero, a French startup, is shaking up the sector with its innovative hydrogen-powered electric planes. The company is focused on a particular slice of the aviation market – business travel – with the aim to make the first certifiable (and profitable) private jet propelled by hydrogen.
"Critics of air travel often point to private jets as an excess, I see Beyond Areo as part of a broad spectrum of innovation required to push the industry forward" says Eloa Guillotin, co-founder and CEO of Beyond Aero. Read more: http://spkl.io/60434QoCN#PictetInsights#aviation#electricplanes
The jet startup "Destinus" claims it’ll be able to fly people from New York to London in 90 minutes with a hypersonic jet..
The startup company, called “Destinus”, has plans for a hypersonic passenger plane. The first design is a small private plane called the Destinus S that can carry about 25 people. This plane would fly very high, around 108,000 ft. To compare, a regular airplane like the Boeing 737 flies at around 41,000 ft, so the hypersonic jet would be much higher. The hypersonic plane would also be very fast, about five times the speed of sound. This means it could fly from Paris to New York in 90 minutes.

Successful implementation of disruptive technologies like a 40-seat eVTOL aircraft requires a new approach to company structure and workflow, according to Freshta Farzam.
The CEO and founder of LYTE Aviation which is developing the LA-44 SkyBus, a 40-passenger aircraft capable of vertical takeoff, has just launched a campaign calling on “co-creators” to help get the aircraft into serial production.
“We put a strong emphasis on co-creators ‘participating’ in our venture, which goes beyond only jobs or partnerships, but also includes them of course. The new normal in our company is that our co-creators on this journey don’t come to work for the salary only. We are disrupting and redefining employment as well,” Farzam tells Revolution.Aero. “People come to us because they can explore their own hidden talents, their true powers and can more efficiently and productively co-create with us to reach one joint goal: getting a truly disruptive aircraft into serial production.”
