Aeralis Aircraft

Let me start this post by reiterating that I sincerely hope to be proven wrong and that I’ll gladly fly the machine if it ever enters service.

I see that Aeralis’ latest press release shows an...

Proone

They are getting some funding. Not enough to build a factory and start building and flight testing jets. I realise that may come in time but it’s still a hell of a commitment to be customer number...

Show me the money.

I’ve said many times before, I dearly want the Aeralis project to work. I would love to see a successful British start up company break into the market with a brand new training solution.
