World-class innovators in aviation: XTI Aircraft Company's team has developed and certified over 30 new aircraft
Join the green aviation revolution: XTI Aircraft expects its first product, the TriFan 600, to reduce carbon emissions by 40% compared to similar aircraft in the space, without impacting customer needs
Pre-sales are taking flight: XTI has received over 116 reservations of the TriFan 600 from operators and individuals across six continents, representing $750m in gross revenues upon delivery

OVERVIEW

Welcome to XTI Aircraft Company, a clean-tech aviation company. It is 2021 and the world is changing rapidly. Yet, air travel on commercial airlines has not evolved: it is time-consuming and inconvenient, with trips to and from the airport, parking, security lines, and now the risk of infection. Avid travelers are also becoming more concerned with their carbon footprint. For most, flying private or chartering jets is too expensive. Until now!

XTI is here to provide the long overdue solution to these challenges. Let’s start a new travel era with a cleaner footprint. The future has arrived!

OUR SOLUTION

True point-to-point travel, saving travelers hundreds of hours a year in total trip time

We’re developing the world’s first civilian long-range vertical takeoff airplane, the TriFan 600. No airport or runway required. Take off from a helipad or any other convenient spot, fly to your destination like a fixed-wing airplane – at two to three times the speed and three to four times the range of a helicopter -- and then land like a helicopter at the other end.

All images are computer-generated, the first aircraft is still in under development and final product and result may differ.

The TriFan will combine the advantages of vertical takeoff and landing with the comfort, speed, and range of a fixed-wing airplane, thereby offering true point-to-point travel, saving travelers hundreds of hours a year in total trip time. In addition, the global pandemic has focused attention on safety for air travelers. The TriFan 600 will enable travelers to avoid crowded airports and packed airplanes.

THE MARKET

Business aviation and beyond

Our initial target market for the TriFan 600 is business aviation, city-to-city commuter customers and private individuals. But our aircraft can be used to gain access to destinations not served by airlines. With direct operating costs (“DOC”) reduced by 50% because of the TriFan 600’s clean tech design, operators can offer private aviation at affordable prices thus opening up the market to many more customers.

In addition, the TriFan can be used for emergency medical services (“EMS”) transporting a stretcher plus 2 attendants. The use of the TriFan for EMS has the potential of saving many lives because of the time it will save in emergencies when every minute is critical. Our aircraft will be able to transport patients, blood, and organs point-to-point, from hospital helipad-to-hospital helipad, eliminating the additional legs provided by ambulances and by airplanes that need an airport.

our traction

Over 116 reservations, representing $750m in potential gross revenues upon delivery

These are some of the milestones that XTI Aircraft Company has accomplished over the last few years:

Developed and tested (multiple hover flights) our 2/3rd scale prototype
Expanded our team and technical expertise
Secured over 116 reservations for the TriFan, representing over $750m in potential gross revenues upon delivery (total estimated costs of goods are uncertain at this moment due to product’s early development stage)
Received patents in U.S., Canada, China, Japan, with patents pending in other countries
We’ve partnered with VerdeGo Aero to design an autonomous cargo variant of the TriFan
Developing LOIs internationally for operations and potential assembly sites

The large number of reservations in our pre-sales program validates a substantial market demand for the TriFan. We have also received widespread support throughout the aviation industry and particularly large key players within the VTOL space.

With a $25,000 refundable deposit per aircraft, interested buyers can reserve an aircraft with a base price of $6.5 million, and retain that priority delivery position as the company works toward commercial production of the TriFan 600.

HOW IT WORKS

Vertical takeoff. No airport or runway required

The TriFan 600 is a six to nine-seat, vertical takeoff and landing airplane. It takes existing technology and components and applies them in a revolutionary configuration. This reduces risks associated with manufacturing the TriFan and obtaining FAA certification.

gif

All images are computer-generated, the first aircraft is still in under development and final product and result may differ.

Using the three ducted fans, the TriFan 600 will take off vertically. The two wing fans then rotate forward for a seamless transition to cruising speed when, like every other fixed-wing airplane, the wings provide all the lift. At that point, the rear fan (embedded in the fuselage) is not needed and will be covered on the top and bottom to eliminate drag.

All images are computer-generated, the first aircraft is still in under development and final product and result may differ.

The airplane will fly directly to its destination and reverse the process, landing vertically on a helipad or other paved surface, a golf course, backyard, job site, or thousands of other locations around the world where it’s safe and legal to land and take off.

FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I land the TriFan at any helipad that already exists?
Absolutely. If it’s safe and legal, and you have the right access to a particular helipad. The size of any one of thousands of existing helipads will accommodate the TriFan 600. In addition, the TriFan 600 can take off or land at any clear, helipad-sized paved surface.

Can I use the TriFan 600 at smaller general aviation airports unavailable to other aircraft?
Yes. Unlike other aircraft, the TriFan 600 doesn’t need an airport or a runway. The TriFan 600 is both VTOL (vertical takeoff and landing) capable and CTOL (conventional takeoff and landing) capable. If the pilot desires to take off or land on a runway, the TriFan uses far less runway length than competing aircraft.

How safe is this aircraft?
Extremely safe, with multiple layers of safety redundancy built in. It will be certified for IFR (Instrument Flight Rules) operations in inclement weather, including known icing. It will be equipped with advanced safety features such as sophisticated autopilot/computerized controls for takeoff and landing, collision avoidance technologies, state-of-the-art avionics, and a whole-aircraft ballistic parachute.

How is the TriFan 600 different from the competition and other VTOL aircraft projects?
The most significant differentiator between the TriFan and all other VTOL aircraft under development is our range and speed. We can go over 700 miles/1200 km helipad-to-helipad (Wall Street Heliport to downtown Chicago vertiport), and 1300 miles/2200 km if a short runway is available (New York to Dallas). Even the best all-electric VTOL aircraft being built for UAM (short-range Urban Air Mobility) or for regional flights can only go a maximum of 200 miles/300 km due to battery limitations. The most significant differentiator between the TriFan and other fixed-wing airplanes is the TriFan’s VTOL capability. That’s great versatility!

What do you think the final stock price will be?
The company is continuing to grow and evaluate various strategies to achieve liquidity for all shareholders. Because there are so many factors to consider, we do not have the ability to predict the future value of our shares.

Have you flown your prototype?
We have successfully hovered our 65% scale prototype numerous times. During the pandemic our testing program has been delayed. We are concurrently continuing development of the company’s first full-scale piloted prototype.

What progress have you made recently?
These are some of the milestones that XTI Aircraft Company has accomplished recently:

New Blog Post: What Ticket Prices can we expect with eVTOL Air Taxis?

9 months ago

helipad city ready for take off with people

Let’s start by getting the acronyms out of the way! Great progress continues to be made in ushering in a new paradigm in aviation – the launch of Vertical Takeoff & Landing (VTOL) aircraft powered by all-electric, hybrid-electric or hydrogen propulsion (eVTOL). Some e-Conventional Takeoff & Landing (eCTOL) aircraft are also under development. All are grouped under the title Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) with Urban Air Mobility (UAM) covering short intra-city flights (generally less than 60 miles/100 km), with Regional Air Mobility (RAM) covering longer, inter-city flights.

Our focus in this post is on expected ticket prices in the passenger air taxi segment of AAM, which promises direct access to city centers and other population centers using vertiports/heliports, significant reductions (down to zero) in harmful emissions, lower noise, and significant time savings by avoiding surface traffic congestion which is projected to worsen with increasing urbanization in the future.

Cost per Available Seat Mile/Kilometer (CASM/CASK) is a common metric used by operators and airlines to accurately pinpoint their different cost heads. These include Ownership, Fixed and Variable operating costs, and additional airline/operator Indirect operating costs such as marketing and sales, management, ticketing, etc. Including the projected Load Factor (% of seats occupied) and adding a profit margin results in the ticket price.

Publicly available data shared by eVTOL OEMs in investor presentations from 2021 list their CASMs as $0.86 (Joby), $1.06 (Vertical Aerospace), and $3.30 (Archer). What specific costs are/are not included is difficult to discern, especially operator indirect operating costs, which could add up to an additional 20%. These three are 4-passenger eVTOL aircraft. An independent analysis of AAM demand for eVTOL air taxis by Goyal, Reiche, Fernando and Cohen (Sustainability, June 2021)¹ shows a median CASM of $4.75 for a 4-pax eVTOL. Another study by MIT and Eve UAM, June 2021² forecasts a near-term average CASM of $5.99, reducing to $2.17 in the long term. UberX taxi fares in large cities in the US are variable based on demand, from ~$1.50 to ~$3.50/mile, and the MIT study cited above assumes $3/mile in Los Angeles. XTI Aircraft projects a CASM for our 8-pax configuration of the TriFan 600 of $0.80 fully burdened (CASM ranges between $0.66 and $0.80 to account for varying operator/airline costs and includes indirect operating costs). If we average the CASM of the three OEMs and two analyses mentioned above, we get a CASM of $3.19 for the eVTOL aircraft. Here are some illustrative one-way fares in the US assuming a 30% gross profit margin and 75% load factor.

What Ticket Prices can we expect with eVTOL Air Taxis table

Given the time savings and convenience promised by eVTOLs, several studies have forecast that a small segment of the population will switch to using them, a percentage expected to increase as eVTOL operations scale up and prices drop further. Having more passenger seats and traveling at higher speeds has a direct and significant impact on CASM, and hence ticket prices. This is clearly reflected in the numbers for XTI’s TriFan 600, which travels at twice the speed and with twice the number of passengers. As sector distance increases, the fare difference compared to eVTOLs widens significantly. It is these lower CASMs and resulting affordable fares which will be crucial to making Advanced Air Mobility available to a wider population resulting in mass market penetration.

Estonia’s unique location in Europe means it could revolutionize regional connectivity by connecting hundreds of active airports and 100 million people inside a circle of 1000 km by using advanced air mobility solutions such as the TriFan 600. Additionally, Estonia intends to become one of Europe’s climate neutral aviation spots with all regional domestic flights becoming net carbon emission-free by 2030.

Sigrid Harjo, Member of Enterprise Estonia’s Management Board said: "The Estonian Investment Agency is very pleased to support advanced technology companies like XTI Aircraft. Estonia embraces innovative solutions and wants to be at the forefront of implementing them, so it’s the perfect place for XTI Aircraft to use as a testbed for its innovative planes and as a regional hub in the future.”

Mr Kristo Reinsalu, General Manager of the EAC, added: "It’s a true honor that aviation pioneer XTI Aircraft has turned its eyes to Estonia with regards to establishing its presence in Europe. We are very excited to see how XTI and VTOL technology can bring Estonian connectivity to a whole new level. Tallinn has enormous potential to become a regional air mobility hub by 2026.”

XTI Aircraft partners up with VerdeGo Aero for unmanned, autonomous VTOL

over 1 year ago

XTI Aircraft has teamed up with VerdeGo Aero to build the TriFan 200, an unmanned, autonomous vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft.

The TriFan 200, a small brother of the in-development passenger TriFan 600 aircraft, will be capable of transporting 227kg (500lb) of cargo on missions of more than 200nm (108km).

“The TriFan 200 aircraft will open up a significant new market for XTI to address the needs of cargo and logistics operators globally,” says XTI’s chief executive Robert LaBelle.

Eric Bartsch, CEO and Co-founder of VerdeGo Aero states that "XTI’s TriFan 200 is an outstanding application for VerdeGo’s hybrid powertrain systems... [and] XTI’s goals to provide its customers with reliable, high-performance cargo aircraft are ideally matched with the efficiency and low operating cost of VerdeGo’s diesel hybrid powertrains,”.

The aircraft will cater to cargo and logistics needs that connect global air cargo hubs — mostly at airports outside of major cities — with distribution points closer to the centre of those cities.

Often this part of the journey is most arduous and time-consuming, taking up to 120 minutes for packages to move about 20 miles.

But XTI sees other uses for the aircraft as well.

“In addition to express shipping, the TriFan 200 is also applicable to longer-range transportation in remote locations without infrastructure, including military logistics missions,” the companies state.

The TriFan 200 will be powered by VerdeGo’s high-efficiency, low-emissions hybrid-electric propulsion system which, the company claims, offers “the lowest operating cost and largest mission flexibility for next-generation electric aircraft”.

VerdeGo was founded in 2017 as an urban air mobility firm but pivoted to its deep expertise in hybrid-electric powertrains. The company’s modular twin generator systems can be stacked for 360KW continuous and 1MW peak output.

Last year, XTI selected GE Aviation’s Catalyst engine as the core of the hybrid-electric propulsion system for the larger passenger TriFan 600 VTOL aircraft.

Expert in Private Equity and Growth Capital Transactions Joins XTI Aircraft Company as Chief Financial Officer

over 1 year ago

Sarita Jha has joined XTI as its Chief Financial Officer. She brings decades of experience in private equity, corporate finance, and business development.

We’re positioning the company to expand operations as we approach 2021, and Sarita will make a significant contribution”

— XTI CEO Robert LaBelle

sartia jha XTI CFO Sarita Jha

DENVER, COLORADO, US, September 21, 2020 /EINPresswire.com/ -- XTI Aircraft Company (XTI) announced that veteran financial advisor and business strategist Sarita Jha has joined XTI as its Chief Financial Officer, effective September 1, 2020. She joins XTI full-time after decades of experience in private equity, corporate finance (M&A and joint ventures), and business development.

“We couldn’t be more pleased to have Sarita join the executive team,” said Robert LaBelle, XTI’s Chief Executive Officer. “We’re positioning the company to expand operations as we approach 2021, and she will make a significant contribution to XTI’s financing activities, as well as the company’s structure and strategy, as we bring the TriFan 600 vertical takeoff airplane to the market.”

“I joined XTI”, said Ms. Jha, “because of the company’s extremely capable and experienced leadership team, because this aircraft is truly revolutionary, and because I think I can fill a need in the area of financing and strategic development that will help us reach our goals. I’m very excited to be here.”

“Sarita started out in her career as a Northrop Grumman engineer”, LaBelle added, So she understands aircraft and aerospace as well as manufacturing. Later she became a senior member of the business development team in a General Motors subsidiary. Then at UniCredit in London for ten years, Sarita was a senior member the team responsible for private equity investments totaling €1 billion (enterprise value). She also served on the board of Martur Automotive Seating Systems”, said LaBelle. “Sarita is an ideal fit for XTI. We’re looking to grow rapidly following the recent increase in our order book to 117 orders for the TriFan 600. That represents over $761 million in gross revenues upon delivery of those aircraft.”

Ms. Jha replaces Andrew Woglom as CFO, who will remain with XTI in a consulting capacity.

The TriFan is a major breakthrough in aviation and air travel. The company conducted successful hover tests and announced a collaboration with GE Aviation last year. The six-seat TriFan 600 will have the speed, range and comfort of a luxury business aircraft and the ability to take off and land vertically, like a helicopter. It will travel at 345 miles an hour, with a range of up to 1,400 miles. Using three ducted fans, the TriFan lifts off vertically. Its two wing fans then rotate forward for a seamless transition to cruise speed and its initial climb. It will reach 30,000 feet in just ten minutes and cruise to the destination as a highly efficient business aircraft.

“The market continues to recognize the value proposition of our unique and revolutionary airplane and its patented technology,” said LaBelle. “Vertical takeoff combined with long-range, the speed and comfort of a business aircraft, and our quieter and cleaner state-of-the-art hybrid-electric propulsion system.”
