Proud of H55 👏, proud of what we built together, and genuinely moved to see those years of quiet, stubborn belief become a turning point the whole industry can see. The industry thinks electric aviation is the future. We always thought it was now. Today feels like proof.

I'll be honest. There were days when I wondered if we were too early. A small team in the Swiss Alps 🇨🇭🏔️, betting that electric aviation ✈️⚡ wasn't the future — it was now.

For a founder, it is deeply meaningful to see that vision becoming certification-grade, market-ready reality.

That decision led to a fundamentally different Energy Storage System — built to meet aviation’s uncompromising safety and certification requirements.

Electric aviation will not scale without trust. Today, H55 is setting the standard for certified energy storage in aviation. Certification enables trust — and trust is what accelerates the commercialisation of electric aviation.

En cette Journée Nationale de Deuil, ma famille et moi pensons avec une profonde émotion à toutes les personnes touchées par le drame de Crans-Montana. Nos plus sincères condoléances aux familles et nos pensées vont aussi à celles et ceux qui luttent pour leur survie.🕊️

Grande tristesse d’apprendre le décès de Claude-Inga Barbey. Sa présence, son regard et son talent laissaient une empreinte forte, bien au-delà de la scène. Elle va beaucoup nous manquer. Pensées à ses proches.

Sharing the cockpit with him was a privilege, hearing his stories of courage & resilience. His legacy will inspire generations. Condolences to his family and loved ones.

Back from several months in the U.S., I reflect on meeting inspiring people, including Major John H. “Lucky” Luckadoo, a true WWII hero.

SKY2SHARE is an excellent initiative that tackles the decarbonization of professional air travel with a concrete and effective approach. Hear from the CEO, Selim Franko - youtube.com/watch?v=e3oE46…

Yesterday, I had the honor of flying the electric Bristell B23 Energic with WWII B-17 veteran Maj (Ret) John "Lucky" Luckadoo. On VE Day's 80th anniversary, this flight bridged the courage of the past with the promise of a sustainable future. #CleanAviation #Innovation #VEDay

Tonight, I’m deeply honored to be recognized at the Gathering of Eagles ceremony at Maxwell Air Force Base, a place rich in aviation history. This week, I’ve met extraordinary individuals who embody exploration, service, and change. facebook.com/share/v/15nWHt…

Tomorrow at 3 PM, I’ll be at @EmbryRiddle in Daytona, sharing my journey from Solar Impulse and the @BrmAero B23 Energic—a leap forward in clean aviation—part of @H55aEro ’s "Across the U.S." tour. The sky is not the limit—it's just the beginning. #ElectricAviation

Great to share that @H55aEro is collaborating with @vmoair in providing leasing programs targeted to support the nascent market for financing electric aircraft and/or battery packs to facilitate the transition to sustainable aviation.
