JetZero's revolutionary aircraft received FAA approval to start testing its Pathfinder that could replace Boeing. The jet, called Pathfinder, seats 250 people and can travel 5,754 miles.
A futuristic-looking jet with a 'blended wing body' could soon replace the problematic Boeing fleet when it takes flight in 2030.
JetZero received FAA approval to start test-flying its Pathfinder prototype that is much smaller than what is planned for the commercial jet The company announced the achievement last week, noting it was the prototype that can now start experimental flights. BWB, a favorite among the US military, means there is no clear dividing line between the wings and the main body of the craft.But, unlike the B-2 Bomber, the Pathfinder has a larger main body and can reach higher altitudes with less fuel.
JetZero said its planes will offer passengers with more legroom as other airlines have continued to reduce the amount of space offered by two to five inches since the 1980s 'We call this the SpaceX of aviation,' Tony Fadell, a JetZero investor and strategic advisor, told Fast Company. JetZero started building the Pathfinder model in 1992 and has honed and perfected it to cut carbon emissions and provide a more comfortable experience for passengers
A United Airlines plane built by Boeing was grounded on March 15 after it was found to be missing a panel when it touched down following a flight.
