Greenwings

test-bench aircraft for OEMs green R&D programs

The Idea origin story

The project aims to build a specialized fleet of versatile aircraft capable of operational deployment. If needed, these can also be reconfigured as test aircraft for aerospace manufacturers' R&D programs in certification and operational validation phase. Initially, we plan to offer a Cessna 208 type plane for ongoing R&D programs aimed at lessening aviation's environmental impact through hydrogen, electric or hybrid repowering, along with increased automation and independence of operations.

The Mission

offer OEMs versatile aircraft and ad-hoc operational expertise to accelerate R&D programs and help decarbonize aviation

Clients

OEMs in aeronautics, sustainable aviation fuel suppliers for certification and operational validation projects. Aerial survey companies and skydiving clubs for standard operations.

Problems we solve

Client’s problem

Your startup could potentially help OEMs speed up their green R&D programs, reduce aviation's environmental impact, and provide efficient test-bench aircraft for certification and validation projects. It could also offer new operational capabilities to aerial survey companies and skydiving clubs.

Confirmation of problem

the impact of aviation on the environment is knowingly growing. Actions to mitigate it need to be implemented as soon as possible. Extensive testing requires to implement more capacities and resources to shorten time-to-operations.

Solution

Versatile aircraft for operations and R&D projects, supported by ad-hoc experts including certified test pilots and mechanics.

Our technologies

This solution is based on technologies

Aeronautical engineering, green energy tech, AI for automation, IoT for data collection & insights, Cloud-based collaborative platforms.

How it works

The aircraft is refitted for an R&D test program, operated following the determined flight test schedule, gathering certification and operational data for OEMS reporting.

Value for the client

OEMS gain accelerated R&D, enhanced operational efficiency, validated economics for better decision-making on production and market launch.
