A good detailed article from FlightGlobal about the Airlander project from Hybrid Air Vehicles Ltd and Tom Grundy. Well worth a read if you want a good precie of where they are at. The comments about “fishing in the same pond” for Advanced Air Mobility funding is a pertinent one. When I attended the Future Aviation Forum in Riyadh in May it was a strong theme. When you look beyond that, anything we can do to protect our planet is a good thing. Looking at a product that can reduce C02 emission by 90% it has to be worth pursuing. Some the characteristics of Airlander will need those of us in the aviation/aerospace sector recalibrate our traditional thinking to truly see the benefits of this to a number of sectors. The analogy I use is “imagine trying to explain a helicopter to a person who only knows what a fixed wing aircraft is!” These are the kind of products and thinking that will give us that paradigm shift we need to make a difference. #rethinktheskies
