Samad Aerospace is now one of the top 10 companies in the world that has built and tested multiple prototypes of its VTOL concept. The company is currently opening its next round of fund raising to start certification programmes of its aircraft.

As part of its expansion plans, the Samad Aerospace team will shortly be moving into new larger headquarters at Cranfield Technology Park in Bedfordshire.  The new ‘SAMAD House’ will provide the growing team with more space to develop its fleet for aircraft.

The eco-friendly VTOL aircraft promise to be safer than a car, completely flexible, less time consuming than any plane or train and as luxurious as a private jet. This unique combination of features will completely redefine the air travel experience.
