Electric Airliner Startup Eviation Halts Operations In Blow To Green Aviation
23 Feb 2025 | Abstracted from Yakima Herald
"Arlington-based startup Eviation, which flew the first flight of its sleek all-electric airplane at Moses Lake in fall 2022, laid off most of its staff last week
"The company shrank gradually through attrition from about 120 employees at first flight in 2022, down to about 70 people a year ago and then to about 30 before the layoffs...Clermont Group had been in talks with investors in the United Arab Emirates and speculated that the goal may be to shutter the U.S. operation and move the company there."
