In this episode, we talk to Eloa Guillotin, the Co-Founder & CEO at Beyond Aero. Founded with the vision of providing a sustainable alternative to traditional private jets, Beyond Aero aims to revolutionise the industry by focusing on the CS-23 certification category for a six-passenger aircraft.

Guillotin discusses Beyond Aero’s innovative approach to aircraft design, which involves a 100% electric powertrain powered by hydrogen fuel cells. This design choice allows for an extended range of up to 800 nautical miles, making it suitable for popular routes in Europe and the United States. She also highlights the company’s core focus on redesigning aircraft architecture around the hydrogen powertrain while leveraging existing subsystems and partnerships with suppliers.

Central to the conversation is the growing demand for sustainable private jet travel and the positive market response to Beyond Aero’s vision. Guillotin reveals that the company has secured over $600 million in letters of intent for their planned business aircraft from a diverse client base, including private jet operators, high-net-worth individuals, and public personalities.

Furthermore, Guillotin also addresses the challenges surrounding hydrogen availability and infrastructure, emphasising that Beyond Aero is part of a larger industry shift towards hydrogen-powered aviation. She discusses the company’s partnerships with over 50 airports worldwide, led by Aéroports de Paris (ADP), to develop hydrogen refueling facilities and implement these infrastructures.

If you LOVED this episode you’ll also love the conversation we had with Anders Forslund, CEO of Heart Aerospace who shares how regional electric air travel can transform the aviation industry. Check it out here.
