Doing calendar year end panic stuff, so have to take the odd break. In one, I ran into the pages for a company that wants to build blended wing autonous cargo fleets. Seems pretty flakey to me, and truly amazing they can raise the money. Anyone know much about this company?

They have selected Zeroavia for the engines of their first full scale project, and that IS a company I am vaguely familiar with. Checked in on their website and they have been flying the Hydrogen fuel cell Do228 a few times this year

Everyone I have spoken with thinks the whole BEV airplane thing is a total dead end, with which I very much agree. BUT: many think we should just skip ahead to Hydrogen, and IMHO these guys are by far the most credible player in that space. I imagine they need the big Dornier to have room for all of the H2 storage and fuel cell pack, but no details on exactly how they are storing their fuel that I can find.
