CitationPartners' Citation Excel Eagle program will enable existing 560XL owners to have their own aircraft refurbished under the nose-to-tail program.
Initially, the operations hub will be built under existing rules governing helipads for rotorcraft as Skyportz and others work with Australian authorities to develop more specific requirements for eVTOL aircraft.
The planned charging points will built to common standards so that other electric vehicles, including other eVTOL models, can use the same infrastructure at vertiports.
The general aviation manufacturer is looking to Xwing to support plans for both existing and new aircraft to be equipped for remotely piloted operations, starting with its Cessna Grand Caravan.
