As JetZero’s blended wing body (BWB) demonstrator takes shape, the airframer is touting a new milestone for future certification, as it targets a commercial entry into service in the early 2030s.

As of this spring, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has moved JetZero into its Integrated Certificate Management Office (AIR-500), and out of the division designated for emerging technologies. The development advances JetZero’s Z4 commercial variant toward Part 25 certification.
