About
Heart makes electric airplanes.
From their website
www.heartaerospace.com ↗Heart Aerospace develops all-electric regional airliners aimed at reducing operating emissions for short-haul, regional flights. Their focus is on zero-emission propulsion and leveraging small airports to expand regional connectivity.
Heart Aerospace designs and aims to deliver electric airliners, including the ES-19 and ES-30 platforms, featuring modular all-electric propulsion, aerodynamic optimization, and a lightweight aluminum airframe. The aircraft are positioned to operate on short runways (as small as 750m) with substantially lower fuel and maintenance costs, and to achieve zero operational emissions on short routes. The company emphasizes a certified commercial flight roadmap for the ES-19 by 2026 and targets reduced door-to-door travel time, lower noise, and integration with communities via regional airports.
Who it’s for: Regional airlines and air operators focused on short-haul routes, city-center airport operators, and stakeholders seeking zero-emission, low-noise, cost-effective regional air travel.
