    AEROSPACE: Where Aviation’s Next Generation Is Taking Shape

    July 1, 2025

    Airlines are placing orders today for the passenger aircraft of tomorrow. Prototypes of the all-wing Z4 from Long Beach, California-based JetZero and the hybrid-electric ES-30 from Heart Aerospace have left the drawing boards and are in testing.

    Production of the 250-seat Z4 will take place in a new facility on a site at Piedmont Triad International (PTI) Airport in Greensboro, North Carolina, JetZero announced on June 12. The more than $4 billion, 14,000-jobs project will get under way in 2026, and the company anticipates producing 20 aircraft per month when fully operational.
