Inspiration from our 2019 EMA Future Innovator of the Year Challenge continues with finalist Kevin Noertker, Co-Founder and CEO of Ampaire. Ampaire is becoming the world’s most trusted developer of safe, clean, quiet, and affordable electric aircraft, making flying more accessible to more people from more airports. In June 2019, Ampaire flew its first hybrid-electric aircraft in Camarillo, California. With NASA’s support, the company is now beginning a study to apply their concept to a 19-passenger plane. Kevin Noertker’s groundbreaking innovation is providing accessible flying to more people while reducing the environmental impact of aircraft.
