LONG BEACH, CA – Airhart is proud to announce a major milestone in our journey to transform modern flight: United Airlines Ventures (UAV) has joined us as an investor. This marks an important step forward in our mission to bring to market the easiest and safest airplane ever designed and built.
A Rapidly Accelerating Trajectory
The investment comes at a time when Airhart’s trajectory is accelerating across all fronts. Over the past year, we have significantly expanded our design and engineering team, bringing together some of the brightest minds in aerospace to solve the most complex challenges in general aviation.
To support this growth, we have officially opened our new Engineering & Design Center in Long Beach, California. This facility serves as the heart of our operations, where we have recently commenced our production test flights—a critical phase in validating our technology and ensuring the highest standards of safety and performance.
Innovation in the Cockpit
As we continue to push the boundaries of what is possible, we are about to begin initial customer installs of our innovative avionics suite. This technology is designed to reduce pilot workload and enhance situational awareness, staying true to our goal of making flight more accessible.
In conjunction with today’s announcement, we are excited to share that the first phase of our avionics suite is now available to order. This marks the first opportunity for the broader aviation community to integrate Airhart’s breakthrough technology into their own aircraft.
Shared Vision for the Future
We are fully aligned with United Airlines Ventures in their mission to invest in companies shaping the future of aviation. It’s an ambition we share deeply—and we couldn’t be more excited to build alongside them. By combining Airhart’s innovative approach to aircraft design with the industry-leading expertise of UAV, we are well-positioned to redefine the standards of air travel.
"This milestone is a testament to the hard work of our team and the potential of our technology," said Nate Thuli, Airhart President. "We extend a sincere thank you to Mukul Hariharan, Zain Athar, and the entire team at United Airlines Ventures for their belief in what we’re building. Together, we are creating a safer, easier, and more intuitive future for pilots everywhere."
