New podcast episode: Marc Allen (Electra, CEO), Tomislav Lang (Flyvbird, Founder)

Right at a time when the sustainable aviation industry is going through a period of uncertainty and, let’s face it, some disappointment in view of the challenges ahead, we gathered the leaders of two companies that retain an undoubtedly optimistic outlook.

In this episode of the podcast, Marc Allen, CEO of hybrid-electric aircraft developer Electra, and Tomislav Lang, founder of regional air mobility startup Flyvbird, explain why it is important to focus on projects and technologies that are demonstrably feasible and able to deliver value from day one.

Electra does not aim to replace jet fuel and Flyvbird does not aim to upend the established airline sector, but both companies are committed to bringing to the market new technologies with the potential to transform the way many people fly. What’s more they want to do so sustainably, not just in the environmental sense of the word, but primarily, in its commercial and financial one.

Tune in for an interesting conversation about the world of possibility that is opening up in the world of regional air mobility as Electra readies gears up to produce ultra-short take-off and landing hybrid-electric aircraft and Flyvbird fine-tunes the algorithms that will fill them with passengers .
