About Us

A Century of Heritage, A Future of Innovation

From the pioneering spirit of 1903 to today's electric aviation revolution, we carry forward a legacy of transforming how humanity moves through the skies.

Our Story

Wright Brothers Aviation was founded on a simple conviction: the future of flight must be electric, autonomous, and accessible. Building on decades of unmanned aerial systems expertise, we launched our eVTOL passenger aircraft program in 2018.

Today, we operate across three continents with a team of over 500 aerospace specialists. Our dual product lines — eVTOL passenger aircraft and industrial drones — serve clients in urban transport, energy, agriculture, logistics, and emergency services.

We are committed to achieving full type certification under EASA and FAA frameworks, ensuring every aircraft we deliver meets the most rigorous airworthiness standards in the world.
