November 10, 20241 yr Hybrid electric regional airliner. Electric engines inboard and conventional engines outboard.
November 11, 20241 yr The Danes will be jealous because the Swedes got there first ! 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel. Crystal Light VR.
November 11, 20241 yr Been following this project for a while. I really hope they will succeed. Seems to be a concept that actually could make it into actual airline operations.

Yes, on first look it looks to me like it could be a real winner! 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.

Its projected operational envelope (100 to 400NM depending on fully electric or hybrid) seems to be tailored to markets with short stage lenghts, where it for sure has the potential to replace current Gen aircraft.

So not much of a range. Useful for many routes, of course, like island hopping in my neck of the woods and to UK and France.

But of course, only carriers 11 people plus crew. That's all electric though, not hybrid. Well into it's test flights, is Alice, and loads of orders. Hopefully the final version of the hybrid Heart aircraft will have the option to easily upgrade batteries as the battery tech improves, which seems to be very rapidly.
