ALBERTA PRIVATE COMPANY AND LOCKHEED MARTIN TO DEVELOP A FAMILY OF HYBRID AIRCRAFT

CALGARY, March 22 /CNW/ - Aviation Capital Enterprises, Inc. (Aviation Capital), an Alberta-based private company, has entered into an exclusive contractual agreement with Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) to design, develop, build, flight test and Federal Aviation Administration certify a family of hybrid aircraft.

Hybrid aircraft are ideally suited for heavy lift cargo transport, domestic disaster relief and international humanitarian resupply. The aircraft requires little or no fixed ground infrastructure and can launch, land and be serviced on unimproved surfaces and water using its innovative air cushion landing system. It taxis, launches and recovers like a conventional aircraft. ...

Lockheed Martin: Cargo airship on track for Alaska delivery in 2019

An official with Lockheed Martin told Alaska lawmakers Tuesday that efforts are on track to bring a modern cargo airship to the state in 2019.
The aircraft builder is working with Alaskans and is close to finishing deals to help make that happen, said Craig Johnston, director of business strategy and development for a California-based Lockheed Martin program, Skunk Works, that is developing a helium-filled airship.
[...]
Anchorage-based PRL Logistics, which organized the movement of cargo, people and fuel for ExxonMobil's $4 billion Point Thomson field, is working with Lockheed in the effort, Johnston said.

Hybrid Air Freighters signs Letter of Intent to purchase Lockheed Martin Hybrid Airships

Hybrid Air Freighters (HAF) has signed a Letter of Intent to purchase up to 12 Lockheed Martin Hybrid Airships, at a total value of approximately $500 million. HAF is working with Hybrid Enterprises, the exclusive reseller of Lockheed Martin's Hybrid Airships, to finalise the purchase agreement.

With significant logistics and aviation experience, Paris-based HAF was established specifically to act as an owner-operator of the Lockheed Martin Hybrid Airships.

(vom 21.6.2017)

Der geneigte Leser fragt sich verblüfft: sind das dieselben 12 Stück die bereits eine britische neugegründete Betreiberfirma kaufen will, oder kommen die obengenannten 12 Einheiten zusätzlich dazu?
