Odys Aviation To Begin Pilot Programs in Oman

Odys Aviation has announced a partnership with MWASALAT, Oman's National Transport Company to begin development on 25 of Odys' Laila UAVs.

The collaboration will be aimed at getting all 25 of the Laila's working on unpopulated or predefined routes by 2025. The Laila design is a hybrid-elected VTOL with variants for cargo transport and parcel service, sporting a payload up to 132 pounds and a range of about 250 miles. In Oman, that could be a very handy tool to move high-value, important parcels from one end of it's harsh geography to the other.

“MWASALAT is excited to be partnering with Odys Aviation to pioneer the future of sustainable air mobility in Oman using their innovative hybrid vertical takeoff and landing technology,” said Bader AlNadabi, CEO of MWASALAT. “These new air vehicles will revolutionize mobility across multiple sectors in Oman and beyond, and we’re looking forward to seeing the impact across the businesses we support across the region when our pilot programs roll out in 2025.”

“The team at Odys Aviation has always been committed to advancing sustainable aviation and we’re thrilled to be working with MWASALAT’s progressive leadership to develop and implement meaningful pilot initiatives that will prove the use case for this technology,” said James Dorris, CEO and Co-Founder of Odys Aviation.
