Overview
Note: Guests are welcome to attend two luncheons before joining ACG Denver.
George E. Bye, aviation influencer, innovator, and pioneer, founded his second company, Bye Aerospace, in 2007 to integrate sophisticated aerospace technologies with advanced aerospace energy and design efficiencies.
Today, Bye Aerospace, named one of Colorado’s 2019 “Top Makers” in ColoradoBiz magazine’s Aerospace and Aircraft Category, and one of last year’s Denver Business Journal Small Business Award winners, is flight testing a prototype two-seat electric airplane called “eFlyer 2.” The airplane is targeted to the flight training market to help provide more cost-effective flight training opportunities to help address the commercial pilot shortage, which is quickly reaching crisis levels on a global scale.
George, who is Chairman and CEO of Bye Aerospace, headquartered at Centennial Airport, has grown the company to over 30 employees and two prototype aircraft. In November 2018, the company announced a major capital investment by SUBARU-SBI Innovation Fund, Bye Aerospace’s largest individual investment to date.
Join us at this luncheon to learn how and why Bye Aerospace intends to revolutionize general aviation by being the first company to receive FAA Part 23 certification for the eFlyer 2.
