Building a regional blended-wing-body aircraft


London-headquartered aircraft lessor Monte Aircraft Leasing will provide financing options for the "Kona" aircraft currently being developed by Natilus. The partnership aims to accelerate the adoption of eco-friendly transport solutions while meeting the increasing demand for efficient cargo transport services.

 

"Kona" will be the first commercially available aircraft from the US aerospace company, leveraging the blended-wing-body design and providing more than double the cargo volume compared to traditional airplanes of similar size.

 

Monte COO Timothy Eyre: "This unique aircraft has been developed specifically to optimise air cargo operations. The opportunity to integrate hydrogen electric propulsion systems into the aircraft is strongly aligned with our strategy to decarbonise regional aviation." (ah)
