Nimbus Aerospace

Nimbus Aerospace is a company based in Seattle, Washington. The site says it was founded in March 2023. It describes a plan to build a family of sustainable, efficient and safer aircraft. The site says affiliated airlines operate the Nimbus brand.

The site describes a goal to make private air travel more sustainable. It also describes the company as a body aircraft wet lease specialist. The company says it operates worldwide with a global presence.

The company says it is a fully licensed and certified airline. It holds two air operator certificates. One is issued by the FAA and one by the DOT, both in the United States. The site also says the company is a member of the European Union's aviation safety agency, EASA.

The company's aircraft program is the N1000. The site describes it as a conventional fixed wing aircraft with a hybrid electric propulsion system. The site says the aircraft uses today's batteries and needs no new airport infrastructure.

The site makes claims about fuel savings and build speed. It says the N1000 burns about 84,000 gallons less fuel over five years than similar legacy aircraft. It says AI, automation and 3D printing help cut development costs. The site says these claims depend on flight conditions, and a route study is recommended.

The specifications list a maximum range of 1,500 nautical miles and a fuel capacity of 300 gallons. The listed cruise speed is 398 mph, and the maximum speed is 421 mph. The initial cruise altitude is 30,000 feet, and the maximum is 40,000 feet.
