Japan Airlines is to invest in Auckland-based Ocean Flyer’s REGENT seagliders.
The MOU will enable the gliders to utilise atmospheric and marine forecasts for operation.
Kiwi company Ocean Flyer has hailed the success of the first electric seaglider test flight by US manufacturer REGENT.
The deal could advance New Zealand towards a zero-carbon future and make use of the country’s ‘blue highway’.
