Pyka’s Pelican Cargo: The Zero-Emission Cargo Plane Revolutionizing Logistics
Pyka has unveiled its latest addition to its industrial aircraft fleet, the Pelican Cargo.
Pelican Cargo is the world's largest zero-emission cargo airplane and the first autonomous vehicle of its class.
With a range of up to 200 miles and a payload of up to 400 lbs, the Pelican Cargo platform is designed to eliminate CO2 emissions from the logistics chain.
Pyka CEO Michael Norcia says the plane offers a significant speed advantage over ground transportation and operates at a fraction of conventional air transportation costs.
Pyka has secured over 80 pre-commitments and options for the Pelican Cargo from three launch customers in North America and Europe.
The Pelican Cargo is undergoing rigorous testing at Pyka's flight test facility in California and its first commercial operation is expected in 2023.
One of Pyka's launch customers, Skyports Drone Services, considers the Pelican Cargo as the most advanced product in its payload class.
Pyka's proprietary technology includes autonomous flight control software, high-density batteries, advanced electric propulsion systems, and carbon composite airframes.
The Pelican Cargo platform will enhance express logistics networks, connect remote rural communities, and ensure fast and reliable access to vital goods and supplies.
