Luxury electric aircraft developer VRCO, has appointed Spanish firm CITD as its sole design and engineering partner, for the XP4 and XPC and agrees on manufacturing support, flight testing and regional representation for e-VTOL training.

The two companies have agreed a design and engineering program for VRCO’s XP4 Electric Air Vehicle and XPC Cargo variant, which will also include the deployment of training hardware – essential because of the Xcraft XP4’s unique flight deck – and an e-VTOL curriculum.

CITD are seeking to maximise opportunities from the emergence of the new segment of electric aircraft.
