Over the last two years, Aerion’s world class team has seen tremendous growth. Developing the next generation of supersonic aircraft requires incredibly talented aerodynamicists, configuration engineers, software tool designers, manufactures and support staff. I am so very proud of the women and men of our company. This is our eighth week working virtually. Our team is safe and healthy, but we miss one another.

We recently announced plans to construct Aerion Park, a new state-of-the-art campus, in Melbourne, Florida. Aerion Park will be an integrated campus for research, design, build and maintenance of our supersonic aircraft, the AS2, which will serve both the general aviation and commercial airliner markets. Read on to learn about the investment that was made and the jobs that the new location will create.

We all have hobbies outside of work, and at Aerion, it’s no surprise that traveling, learning more about aviation, and flying planes tend to be some of the more popular hobbies among our employees. Across departments, we have over 20 certified pilots and pilots in training. To celebrate World Pilot’s Day this weekend, we asked a few of them to share a bit about their experience flying – here’s what they had to say.

Here at Aerion, we’re committed to designing a method of travel that is not only faster and has a reduced impact on the environment, but also addresses the climate crisis head on. We’re going to achieve that goal not just through one method, but through our entire approach to our facilities, design, manufacturing, customer operations and even the retirement of the aircraft at the end of its useful life.

Building a supersonic business jet requires expertise, but building one that is quiet and sustainable – that takes world-class tools, processes, and people. Fortunately for Aerion, we’ve spent the past decade building innovative tools, refining our design process, and recruiting an amazing team. Want to know more? Read on.

In honor of National Women’s History Month, the Aerion team shares the women in their lives who inspire them.

In this post we discuss some of the key steps that Aerion is taking to build our supersonic business jet (spoiler: we’re assembling a team of airplane experts).

Investment and suppliers and growth, oh my! We take a moment to reflect on our successes in 2019 and prepare for all that is ahead in 2020.

Earlier this month, we welcomed Tim Fagan to the Aerion family as director of industrial design, including the interior design, for our revolutionary supersonic business jet, the AS2. Read on to learn more about his background, his interests and what he hopes to accomplish here at Aerion.

In this post we explain what causes a sonic boom to form, and we introduce what Aerion is doing to mitigate the impact of sonic booms with the AS2.

Read about how one of Aerion’s brightest engineers discovered her passion for STEM and how she’s encouraging more women to follow in her stead.

I was giving a short talk at Oshkosh, and when it came time for questions, this young girl put up her hand and asked the most profound and exciting question of the day. Her question was, “Based on all the things you talk about, do you think it’s going to be possible for airplanes to fly into space?” I’ve thought about that young girl often since that evening, and I wish I could talk to her again to give her a more thoughtful answer in person. This is what I would have said.

If you want to learn more about our deep knowledge of the supersonic industry, the environmental issues we plan to overcome, and what it’s like to revolutionize travel, follow along with us as we build a sustainable global transportation network, running at supersonic speed.

This is a heartfelt post about three young men who spent the summer working at Aerion Supersonic. If you want to change the world with us, please let me know. We would love to have you join our team.
