The business aviation services group inaugurated its first Beta charging station on March 7 at Manchester-Boston Regional Airport (KMHT) in New Hampshire.

The Air National Guard spent a week training with Beta Technologies' Alia prototype at the Air Dominance Center in Savannah, Georgia.

Beta Technologies’ Alia prototype conducted a public flight demonstration in Louisiana on February 7, marking the first flight of an electric aircraft in the Bayou State, according to the Vermont-based manufacturer.

The all-electric Alia prototype demonstrated time and cost savings in casualty evacuation and emergency maintenance mission simulations.

Beta Technologes' 320 kilowatt charging equipment has been designed to work with any type of electric aircraft or ground vehicle.

The airline has chosen the Alia as the first electric aircraft to be deployed as part of its Mission NextGen decarbonization program, which could see larger models introduced from 2030.
