Horizon Aircraft has selected RAMPF Composite Solutions to manufacture the fuselage for its full-scale Cavorite X7 hybrid-electric eVTOL. This partnership marks a key step from design to production, with RAMPF tasked to build the main body using advanced lightweight carbon fiber and fiberglass materials. The collaboration supports Horizon's timeline to assemble the prototype in 2026 and begin flight testing in early 2027. Both companies are based in Ontario, Canada, enabling closer quality control and real-time engineering collaboration. RAMPF, a subsidiary of the German RAMPF Group, specializes in aerospace composite parts designed to meet strict weight limits and withstand harsh conditions. Horizon's CEO Brandon Robinson highlighted RAMPF's industry-leading manufacturing capabilities as essential for bringing the Cavorite X7 fuselage to life. The Cavorite X7 targets the Regional Air Mobility market with a seven-seat hybrid-electric design featuring a patented Fan-in-Wing system. It aims for a range of approximately 800 kilometers and a top speed of 450 km/h. Horizon recently secured over $24 million in funding and a $10.5 million grant to support all-weather flight system development, positioning the company to meet certification standards and operational goals.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐏𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐁𝐨𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠’𝐬 𝐌𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐌𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐧 𝐖𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐲 𝐀𝐢𝐫𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐭 Boeing’s widebody aircraft are powered by some of the most advanced commercial jet engines ever built, reflecting major progress in propulsion technology. These engines deliver higher thrust, improved fuel efficiency, and lower noise and emissions, enabled by advanced composites, precision manufacturing, and highly integrated digital control systems. Designed for long-haul performance and reliability, modern widebody propulsion represents years of innovation across materials science, aerodynamics, and systems engineering. Widebody programs also drive complex, high-value manufacturing ecosystems that extend far beyond final aircraft assembly. They rely on tightly coordinated global supply chains, specialized machining, electronics, software, and rigorous quality processes. As production rates evolve and next-generation aircraft enter service, propulsion technology continues to shape how modern manufacturing scales performance, efficiency, and resilience. https://lnkd.in/g6AsXdVx Simple Flying

Manufacturing scale is a critical determinant in the transition of Advanced Air Mobility from development programs to sustained commercial operations. Joby Aviation has announced the acquisition of a second manufacturing facility in the Dayton, Ohio region, adding more than 700,000 square feet of production capacity. The facility is expected to support increased aircraft output while providing additional flexibility for long-term growth as certification and operational milestones advance. Several aspects of this development are noteworthy: • Manufacturing capacity expansion. The additional facility supports higher production rates and sustained aircraft manufacturing. • Distributed production strategy. Manufacturing operations in both California and Ohio improve resilience and supply chain continuity. • Workforce and industrial alignment. The Ohio location leverages a mature aerospace and defense manufacturing ecosystem. • Policy and regulatory context. The expansion aligns with federal efforts supporting early operational integration of eVTOL aircraft. Taken together, the announcement highlights the importance of aligning industrial capacity, workforce readiness, and regulatory planning to enable scalable Advanced Air Mobility operations.
