In this conversation, we talk with Jamie Gull, CEO of Talyn Air, about their electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft system that separates and recombines in the air. Talyn Air has designed a green, battery operated aircraft system that will be able to take off from a local convenient location, without the hassle of having to fly out of a standard airport. It will be able to take you from city to city in less time than it would take to drive or fly through a commercial airline.
Are you tired of waiting at the airport for hours to travel a short distance? If so, this is the episode to listen to in order to find out more about this new stress free and environmentally safe way to travel.
