The innovative technology and new aircraft design will lower fuel consumption by 70 per cent and lower CO2 emissions by 80 per cent
18 March 2021: SE Aeronautics has announced the launch of SE200, a mid-market widebody aircraft that will carry up to 264 passengers, will be 100 per cent monocoque molded and will revolutionize aviation. The innovative design is a more efficient, light-tri wing configuration that greatly improves lift over drag, resulting in short take-off and landing (STOL) capabilities and extremely long flights. The construction is all composite, molded in one tough, safer piece.
Explaining the concept of this next-Gen aircraft Lloyd Weaver, Chief Engineer, SE Aeronautics said, “Our innovative technology and new aircraft design will lower fuel consumption by 70 per cent and lower CO2 emissions by 80 per cent as measured by per seat kilometer. We also incorporated super thin, long wings and complete streamlining from the nose to the tail.”
The aircraft will also have a new “once-through” air feed ventilation system that never recirculates air in the cabin, dramatically reducing the risk of exposure from other infected passengers. This, coupled with their new “tilting” seat design, will create never-before comfortable experience for economy passengers.
This disruptive new design is also expected to double the lifespan of an aircraft, while reducing overall block hour cost by half when compared to other aircraft its size. With an emphasis on safety, the design is made of one solid-molded piece of fuselage that is many times stronger than existing aircraft. The fuel is not stored in the wings but in self-sealing bladders on top of the fuselage and in the event of emergency landing over water, the aircraft floats.
Tyler Mathews, CEO, SE Aeronautics said, “Our manufacturing efficiency will allow us to produce our aircraft in significantly less time than the current traditional method. But the jewel in the crown is really our ability to get that fuel consumption rate down by 70per cent. We are going to revolutionize the industry.”
SE Aeronautics is at the forefront of a new generation of aircraft and a revolution for an industry with a fuel-efficient aircraft and a design focused on efficiency, sustainability and safety.
