How to make a hybrid electric regional aircraft fly
From SkyZero Podcast on Electric and Hybrid Electric Aviation · 57:36
Show by Kyle Hodgson
Ben Stabler, the CTO at Heart Aerospace, talks to us about their ES-30 aircraft - a 30 seat independent hybrid regional airliner. In fully electric mode it can fly 200km carrying 30 people - with its turboprop turbines engaged, it can travel 800 km carrying 25 people. It replaces the ES-19 - a fully electric 19 seater - and we talk to Ben about the change, how the new aircraft works, how they predict the market will make use of this aircraft, and the future of aviation.Ben's a thoughtful, intelligent engineering leader, and he really talked openly about the challenges and what Heart Aerospace is trying to do.
