What could you do with £200M instead? 💡💷 🛩 The recent struggles in the eVTOL market highlight a stark reality: big dreams don’t always translate into sustainable business models.  Vertical Aerospace, a major player in the flying taxi space, is facing financial challenges and now potentially a $200M lawsuit, while competitors like Lilium and others have burned through billions with limited results to show for. 💸 🔥 The eVTOL sector is undoubtedly innovative, but the road to commercialisation remains steep, requiring enormous capital and time ⏳ —far more than originally anticipated. Meanwhile share prices have been going down. 📉 Now, consider this: eCTOL (electric Conventional Take-Off 🛫 and Landing 🛬). Just one letter different, but it represents a 10x lower investment requirement to get a commercially viable aircraft into the skies. 😲 With planes like the Electron 5 from ELECTRON aerospace, we’re bringing real, regional air mobility to market by 2028 with zero emissions and a pragmatic business model. 📈 🚀 It’s time to focus on realities and smart investment decisions. 🤓 Instead of chasing speculative concepts, let’s support scalable, impactful solutions that deliver measurable results in the near term. 🌍 The future of sustainable aviation is here—if we make the right choices today. 🔑 Link to article in the comments. #SustainableAviation #SmartInvestment #eCTOL #Innovation #Aerospace

𝐈𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐦𝐨𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐟𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐢𝐝𝐝𝐥𝐞 𝐄𝐚𝐬𝐭? 🤔✈️ Last week, we had an insightful experience at the Global Aerospace Summit. 🌍 While there’s a lot of talk in Europe and the USA about the future of aviation and aerospace, the real action is happening in the Middle East. 🌟 Middle Eastern governments are not only demonstrating a clear, forward-thinking vision of the future of mobility, stretching from land to sea and air 🚗🚢✈️, but they also possess the funds to make it a reality—something that sets them apart from their counterparts in Europe and the USA, where risk aversion often hinders long-term progress. 🏦🔄 As our CCO and Co-Founder, Marc-Henry de Jong, noted, "The UAE is leading the charge toward the future of mobility. 🇦🇪 By backing innovative industries like sustainable aviation, the UAE is attracting top global talent and intellectual property. This visionary approach, combined with substantial investment, positions the region as a hub for next-generation mobility solutions." 🌐🚀✨ At ELECTRON aerospace, we’re excited to be part of this journey toward a sustainable aviation future. 🌿✈️ Special thanks to Katie Coleman from Informa Markets for making this incredible event happen! 🙌🎉 #GlobalAerospaceSummit #AviationInnovation #SustainableAviation #ZeroEmission #EMobility

📣 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘂𝗺 𝗝𝗲𝘁 𝗮𝘁 𝗜𝗟𝗔 𝗕𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗶𝗻 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 🚀 At ✈️ ILA Berlin - Pioneering Aerospace, our CCO/COO + Co-founder Marc-Henry de Jong had the chance to experience the #LiliumJet firsthand. The design and premium materials of the mockup were impressive, offering a surprisingly spacious cabin with a cozy, secure feel. Yet, the current aircraft concept raises some important questions in terms of: 1️⃣ Efficiency of boarding and disembarking 2️⃣ Luggage management behind the last row 3️⃣ Effectiveness of emergency evacuation 4️⃣ Market size for high CAPEX and OPEX aircraft At ELECTRON aerospace, we prioritize customer experience, aiming for a car-like travel feel. Our Electron 5 features a full-size cargo door for easy entry and exit, an accessible luggage area, and adjustable seats for comfort. While #eVTOLs face challenges, we believe #eCTOLs will unlock the potential of regional air mobility (#RAM). #ILA2024 #AviationInnovation #ELECTRON #RegionalAirMobility #SustainableAviation #FutureOfTravel #CustomerExperienceIsKing

🚀 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝘁𝗼 𝗩𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿! 🌍✈️ We at ELECTRON aerospace are thrilled to celebrate Riksja Travel's visionary investment of €725,000 in the future of electric transport, as highlighted in the article on Duurzaam Bedrijfsleven, see below: 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗯𝘆 𝗥𝗶𝗸𝘀𝗷𝗮 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗹: 🔋 Over €600,000 in ELECTRON aerospace and E-Flight Academy for small electric aircraft and specialised flight training. 🚐 €125,000 in electric campers from LEAVV | elektrische campers, set to enhance Riksja's travel offerings. We are especially grateful to Marius Appelman, who was the first to back us and whose investment kick-started our project. Marius believes that electric flying for short distances will become a reality within a few years. He said: “We can offer sustainable regional flights between nearby destinations, such as islands or mountainous regions. This is just the first step towards a future where electric flying is the norm. Riksja Travel is committed to bringing about positive change in the world of travel. Electric flying is an essential part of this." ✈️ What unites all three investments? We're all accelerating the transition to eco-friendly travel and making a positive impact on the environment. 🌍✨ You can read the original article in Dutch here: https://lnkd.in/eyPwuaPT #SustainableTravel #ElectricFlying #Innovation #TravelIndustry #RiksjaTravel #ELECTRONAerospace #EflightAcademy #Leavv

✈️✨ 𝗙𝗶𝗲𝗹𝗱 𝗧𝗿𝗶𝗽 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁: 𝗔𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝘃𝘀. 𝗝𝗼𝗯𝘆 🚁✨ Marc-Henry de Jong, our CCO/COO and Co-Founder, had the opportunity at the recent Future Aviation Forum in Riyadh to explore the #Archer and #Joby eVTOL aircraft up close. You can find images and Marc-Henry’s personal, highly subjective experiences in the attached PDF! 📸 𝗔𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗠𝗶𝗱𝗻𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁: The Archer Midnight stood out with its sleek, futuristic design and personalized touchpoints, including integrated displays showing passenger details and flight information. However, Marc-Henry noted that the low doors and wing configuration made getting in and out a bit challenging. 🚪✈️ 𝗝𝗼𝗯𝘆 𝗮𝗶𝗿𝗰𝗿𝗮𝗳𝘁: In contrast, the Joby aircraft felt much more confined. At 1.86 meters tall, Marc-Henry found the headroom and leg space to be quite limited, giving a feeling reminiscent of a cramped 1960s helicopter. 🚁😕 𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻: Unlike these eVTOLs for short trips, our Electron 5 is designed for regional trips of 30-90 minutes, prioritizing comfort with a spacious cabin that accommodates individuals up to 1.95 meters tall. Stay tuned for more cabin images! 🛫✨ 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻: Based on the aircraft sizes, it seems that Archer, Joby, and ELECTRON aerospace share the vision of sticking to a car-sized aircraft with 5-6 seats. While Archer and Joby target urban air mobility with high costs and a limited customer base, our Electron 5 aims to offer regional capabilities with much lower costs, appealing to a broader market. 🌍💡 #FutureAviation #CustomerExperience #eVTOL #eCTOL #Electron5
