Fully loaded talk on the 30 seat hybrid-electric plane test flying in US in 2025!
Join my talk on the Evolution Show with Anders Forslund, CEO and founder of Heart Aerospace developing the world´s first hybrid electric 30 seater airplane!

Heart Aerospace is a private Swedish company founded in 2019 that caught my interest the same year and since a few years back I also invested in the company. I´ve had Anders Forslund on the show several times before so feel free to check out those episodes as well.

Today´s episode is long so check the chapters to jump to specific sections of particular interest to you! :) (or stay tuned for upcoming shorter clips!)

Love to hear your thoughts about Heart ES-30 in the comments below! :)

Cheers!
Johan Landgren, host of the Evolution Show
