The founders of VerdeGo Aero have long believed that hybrid-electric propulsion was going to be a key enabling technology for a new generation of electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL), electric conventional takeoff and landing (eCTOL) and electric short takeoff and landing (eSTOL) aircraft to be commercially successful.
Erik Lindbergh, the grandson of the famed trans-Atlantic aviation pioneer Charles Lindbergh, helped launch the XPRIZE Foundation in 1996, which offered a cash award for the first team that could build and launch a rocket into space, and do it again in two weeks.
The Vertical Flight Society held its Transformative Vertical Flight (TVF) 2025 meeting at the Phoenix Convention Center on Feb. 4–6, 2025. This critical meeting included the 12th Electric VTOL Symposium and the 11th Biennial Autonomous VTOL Technical Meeting, as well as the annual Short Course on Electric VTOL Design. Check out all these great resources!

The Vertical Flight Society (VFS) today announces the 2025 individual recipients of its prestigious awards program. Since its establishment in 1944, the VFS awards program has paid tribute to the outstanding leaders of vertical flight and served as a catalyst for stimulating technological advances. The 2025 award recipients will be honored at the Grand Awards Banquet on May 22, 2025, as part of the 81st Annual Forum and Technology Display in Virginia Beach, Virginia (www.vtol.org/forum).
