ZeroAvia’s team at Cotswold Airport in Kemble successfully completed the first-ever filling of the newly installed Air Liquide liquid hydrogen tank onboard Dornier 228 testbed.
After a full process run-through and four hours of coordinated work, company reached a “full status”. The LH2 tank has a capacity of 16kg of hydrogen and is holding the fuel at -253 degrees Celsius.
“A proud moment for everyone involved and an exciting step toward clean flight. More to follow as we prepare for the next stage of testing – feeding hydrogen from the tank to the fuel cells to then provide power to the electric motor and spin the left-side propeller”, the ZeroAvia stated.
