Safire Aircraft, thanks to a new “Swiss syndicate of investors,” has gotten fresh funding that it claims will carry development of the S-26 very light jet through the aircraft’s first flight.

Camilo Salomon, executive v-p of the West Palm Beach, Fla.-based startup jet manufacturer, said the agreement was signed November 1, but he declined to reveal the amount of the investment or the names of the investors. “What is important,” he said, “is that we have the funding now to take the airplane through its first flight.”
