Unless one of the snap up the innovators while they are small and use their name, presence and experience to get the hybrid certified and into the engines
Reminds me a little of the Dynacam (or axial) engine that really makes a lot of sense in an aircraft and with Piper having plans to manufacture it for the PA28 range (late seventies I think, someone might remember).....and it all stranded on an disagreement over how rich the patent holder should be allowed to get
I think these guys hold the rights now:
