Tennessee's innovative spirit is soaring to new heights as Whisper Aero, the state's pioneering ultralight aircraft company, receives a $500,000 grant. This exciting award, through the Transportation Network Growth Opportunity (TNGO) initiative, will propel Whisper Aero's groundbreaking electric jet motor technology forward.

Partnering with Tennessee Tech University, this collaboration will see Whisper Aero's revolutionary eQ250 electric jet "propulsors" integrated into an Aériane Swift3 glider, creating an UltraQuiet flight experience unlike any other. Tennessee Tech faculty and students will play a vital role, conducting crucial ground testing at their new Crossville Mobility Incubator, ensuring seamless integration of the engines, batteries, and controllers.

Whisper Aero's game-changing WhisperDrive technology, featuring a multitude of stiff composite fan blades within an acoustically treated duct, is poised to redefine quiet flight. With each eQ250 propulsor delivering up to 80 lbs. of thrust, the current range of approximately 109 miles will be significantly extended to nearly 170 miles with the integration of the latest EPiC 2.0 energy batteries.

Let's celebrate this milestone as Whisper Aero prepares to redefine the future of flight! Learn more here: ow.ly/uaKc50W0bnb

Electra successfully tested the EL9 Ultra Short hybrid-electric aircraft, proving its blown wing design allows takeoff and landing in just 150 feet — 10% of the usual distance.

Tests with a 20% scale model of the wing show lift coefficients over 20, ensuring safe operations in small spaces. The design benefits commercial and defense sectors, offering new capabilities like connecting remote communities and enhancing logistics for military operations.

“This is a major milestone in demonstrating the EL9’s ability to take off and land in spaces never before possible for fixed-wing aircraft,” said Chris Courtin, Director of Technology Development at Electra. “Verification of the effectiveness of the optimized EL9 wing shows that the EL9 is both transformative and practical. These results give us high confidence in our ability to accurately predict the impacts of electric blown lift on the aircraft, bringing us closer to making our vision of Direct Aviation a reality.”

The US Army supported testing, and Electra is refining the EL9 based on results for a more sustainable future in air mobility. With over 2,200 pre-orders, valued over $10 billion, Electra plans test flights in 2027 and commercial service in 2029 under FAA regulations.
