    Cool: JetZero’s four-year development plan is due to culminate in flight tests of the full-scale demonstrator beginning in the first quarter of 2027. Sized around the capacity of a Boeing 767 with a wingspan close to that of an Airbus A330, the demonstrator will be built and tested in collaboration with Northrop Grumman and its prototyping subsidiary Scaled Composites. It's an ambitious plan though, given that they have only just been granted licenses for their 1:8 scale model.

    How hard is it to get clearance from the FAA to fly a large drone? This seems to indicate they are very very early in the development process.
