In recent years, commercial aviation has gotten a massive upgrade. With new planes like the 787, A350, A220, and the recently developed C919, it has become more modern and advanced. But when we look at general aviation, everything looks old and outdated. Well, it is pretty hard to say it’s not, considering that the Cessna 172, one of the most flown GA aircraft today, is already around 68 years old. We collected various research to show some of the best GA aircraft operating today and two of their most significant features. So anyway, what planes are being used to make general aviation more modern today? Let’s find out.

Congratulations Team, as captured this is a significant step and opportunity for Hybrid Air Vehicles Ltd
'As a Design Approved Organisation, we have an established relationship with the CAA and have implemented processes to achieve the safety-first standards that today’s aviation industry demands. We’ve also worked with regulators to establish a certification basis, which includes the safety criteria this type of aircraft needs to meet. Formally beginning the Type Certification process is a proud moment for myself and the entire Design Office.' Mike Durham CTO, Hybrid Air Vehicles Ltd
Following the application, the CAA and Hybrid Air Vehicles will agree a plan for the Type Certification process, which will identify how Hybrid Air Vehicles will prove Airlander 10 achieves the requirements set out in the basis for certification, a step known as the means of compliance. With the CAA’s involvement, Hybrid Air Vehicles will develop extensive documentation and conduct a range of planned tests. As for previous Type Certification processes, certification will utilise a range of analysis, simulation, laboratory, ground and flight tests.
Chief Executive Officer at Hybrid Air Vehicles Ltd
I’m pleased to share that today Hybrid Air Vehicles Ltd have announced the beginning of a landmark Airlander 10 Type Certification programme with UK’s Civil Aviation Authority.

The first customers from the Middle East for the new Cassio family of small passenger aircraft will soon be unveiled by start-up manufacturer VoltAero.
The French company’s founder and CEO Jean Botti, told Times Aerospace' Arabian Aerospace at the Farnborough International Airshow in July.
Botti told media that its launch aircraft the Cassio 330, which has five seats, is non-pressurised and features its parallel electric-hybrid powertrain, is halfway through certification.
The plan is for first flight in early 2025, certification to be complete by the end of 2025 and the production of 15-20 330s in 2026 and first deliveries to customers that year.
Botti said VoltAero will also begin manufacturing the next aircraft in the family, the 6-seat Cassio 480, “very quickly” after the introduction of the 330 at its new factory in France. The 480 is more powerful than the 330 and will feature a pressurised cabin and retractable landing gear.
The aim to ramp up to an output of 150 Cassio family aircraft annually. A 10–12-seater version, the Cassio 600, will augment the family later.
VoltAero has 232 pre-orders to date for various Cassio models. Botti stressed that the Cassio family is aimed at operators who want a fixed-wing aircraft that has environmentally responsible credentials plus operating flexibility and efficiency.
The first applications will be for operators that require an aircraft capable of 400 km or 2-hour stage lengths with passenger, cargo medevac and wheelchair missions all envisaged.
