XTI’s CEO Robert LaBelle said, “We’re thrilled to work with Matthew and his team as they represent the gold standard in developing sustainable living concepts, having first started in cuisine and now moving into sustainable materials such as aircraft interiors. XTI is committed to partnering with innovative, industry leaders such as MKC to deliver a truly sustainable travel solution to our customers."
XTI is developing the TriFan 600, a hybrid-electric, long-range VTOL aircraft which the company estimates will reduce CO2 emissions by 40%, compared to similar aircraft. Enabling true point-to-point travel, the TriFan 600 will have a significant impact on the travel footprint without the need for additional infrastructure (using existing VTOL infrastructure, such as helipads and many other surfaces) or a new airspace regulatory framework.
