Horizon Aircraft
Canadian aircraft company based outside Toronto. Horizon is working on the Cavorite X5, a long-range hybrid-electric VTOL airplane with a neat split wing ducted fan VTOL system and a focus on early use cases rather than leaping straight into commercial air taxi operations.

Horizon’s Cavorite X7 just made aviation history by pulling off the world's first stable fan-in-wing transition flight. The hybrid eVTOL can take off like a helicopter, cruise like a plane, and recharge its batteries mid-flight for quick turnarounds. -
The Cavorite X5 is a fascinating eVTOL air taxi design, capable of splitting its wing covers apart to reveal its vertical lift fans, or closing them for high-speed, long-range cruise flight. Horizon has now started flight testing its prototype. -
Toronto's Horizon Aircraft has unveiled a 50% prototype of its gorgeous – and very unique – electric VTOL air taxi. The Cavorite X5 separates itself from the pack as the only eVTOL that completely covers its lift fans for super low-drag cruise flight. -
Canada's Horizon Aircraft has popped up out of stealth mode with a gorgeous and innovative 5-seat hybrid eVTOL design using a wicked-cool split-wing mechanism to transition between VTOL and horizontal flight, and a totally unique path to market.
