Congested airspace, reduced visibility and the use of older aircraft create hazardous operating conditions for firefighters. The remotely piloted Vertiia could get in close in difficult conditions as well as through the night.

Aviation Logistics becomes the first civil customer for the Vertiia, having put in an order for at least ten of the zero emission aircraft for freight, aeromedical and passenger flights across Australia.

Max York is delighted to join AMSL at a pivotal point in its quest to deliver emissions free flying. He joins the team to help fulfil its potential as it continues flight testing, certification and manufacturing activities.
