Beyond Aero's Hydrogen-Electric Aircraft Program Heads to Wind Tunnel
20 Jan 2026 | Abstracted from Flying Magazine
Beyond Aero completed wind‑tunnel tests of its BYA‑1, a hydrogen‑electric corporate aircraft targeting entry around 2030. The design seats 4–8 passengers, aims for roughly 800–1,000 nm range, and uses a hydrogen fuel‑cell powertrain sized for business‑aviation missions. The five‑week DNW campaign validated aerodynamic predictions and moves the aircraft toward freezing its preliminary design for certification.
