Hybrid Aircraft Market Key Highlights:

In September 2024, Heart Aerospace, a hybrid-electric aircraft manufacturer and Loganair a U.K. regional airline, have announced an exclusive partnership aimed at decarbonizing regional air travel across the U.K. Under this agreement, Loganair and Heart Aerospace will work together to explore and develop use-cases for hybrid-electric aircraft within Loganair's extensive network in Scotland and the rest of the U.K.Headquartered at Glasgow Airport, Loganair is the U.K.'s largest regional airline by passenger numbers and fleet size, primarily operating domestic flights.

In September 2024, according to AeroTime research article, within the world of aviation, the launch of commercial eVTOL (electric Vertical Take-off/Landing) flights is starting to loom large on the radar screen. As it does, one aircraft is seeking to capture a particular slice of the advanced air mobility market, one that none of its rivals can challenge – that is, and the provision of electric flights for seven people flying at up to 250 knots (450kph) and with a stage length of around 500 miles (800km). That aircraft is the Horizon Aircraft Cavorite X7.
