ZeroAvia is on a tear this week. Several announcements of what look like large-scale projects across the commercial aviation space. Probably the most interesting of these is the one with MHIRJ.
ZeroAvia is on a tear this week. Several announcements of what look like large-scale projects across the commercial aviation space. Probably the most interesting of these is the one with MHIRJ. The latter has a strong team with a good history in the business. We spoke with Elio Ruggi and Ross Mitchell about the project and what exactly MHIRJ’s role is. As you might expect, the devil is in the details.
Some thoughts:
Since it is MOU, there are no details to share. Not even a timeline.
MHIRJ’s role is potentially crucial in the development and certification of a new propulsion solution
But MHIRJ is not an engine producer. So a question on that. Pratt & Whitney Canada’s shadow looms.
The good news is that the Alaska Airlines project brings together many people from former Bombardier Commercial – they know each other from the “Q-400” days. That should make the project go smoothly.
In summary, this could be a very interesting project. ZeroAvia taps into an underutilized aerospace team at MHIRJ. Smart move. But lots of questions on IP, engine technologies, and applications. Clearly, a space to watch carefully.
