In this episode, Igor introduces the Los Angeles-based manufacturer behind the world’s first rigid electric variable-buoyancy airship (EVBA). With more than two decades of development and FAA certification experience, Aeros is now pushing toward commercial deployment of a logistics platform that can pick up and deliver cargo anywhere, without the need for roads, ports, runways, or other fixed infrastructure. Igor shares the origins of Aeros’ mission to “save the world” by reimagining global logistics and explains how the company’s patented buoyancy-control system solves the century-old problem that prevented airships from becoming practical cargo solutions. He walks listeners through the engineering breakthroughs behind variable buoyancy, hybrid-electric propulsion, and the lightweight pressure-vessel structures that make the airships commercially viable. The discussion also explores how Aeros plans to transform the last-mile, middle-mile, and first-mile logistics ecosystem through three vehicle classes, ranging from a 10-ton urban airship supporting drone-based deliveries to a 244-ton intercontinental heavy-lift platform. Igor also outlines upcoming R&D milestones, including urban demonstrations in Los Angeles, and explains how the company is preparing its next-generation airships for FAA certification from day one.
