Norway campaign with BETA Technologies qualifies Bristow's first AAM pilot and engineer

The flights used BETA Technologies' all-electric eCTOL aircraft in the International Test Arena for Zero- and Low-Emission Aviation. Bristow describes the program as a first-of-its-kind flight campaign. It also qualified the company's first AAM pilot and first AAM engineer.

CEO Chris Bradshaw said the campaign "moves us closer to commercializing lower-emission aviation solutions" while maintaining the reliability needed for eventual aircraft certification.
