The
Pegasus Vertical Business Jet (VBJ®)
OUR (VBJ®)
The Pegasus Vertical Business Jet (VBJ®) (Pegasus VBJ®) will be the first aircraft to provide true business jet performance coupled with helicopter convenience. The VBJ® will make point to point travel feasible with multiple innovations that make it safe and easy to fly.
The VBJ is designed specifically around ease of access to helipads / heliports and conventional runways.
This duel application positions the VBJ aircraft in a market segment that very few can compete with, especially when considering the multiple redundancies incorporated from the hybrid power source, flight control and stability systems.
The comfortable interior cabin offering 6 PAX + PIC, an on-board lavatory, galley and baggage compartment all support a great relaxing experience exuding comfort and style.
Targeting Government operations, corporates, HNWI’s, medivac, search and rescue, offshore operations, general charter, super yachts and ocean going vessels. Pegasus VBJ® is about to change the way we understand air travel, designed with the capability to land on almost any surface.
