“The LINX P9 is a full-composite structure aircraft, with two variants of Hybrid Electric and twin turbo-prop engines both running on SAF/ Hydrogen in the future, a high wing configuration, and is unpressurized and equipped with a retractable tricycle landing gear. It can perform a jump take-off and no-roll landing without the need for a runway, making it a highly versatile passenger and cargo craft, fit for a wide range of use cases.”
