GKN Supernal wings
The Supernal composite wing assembly and booms are manufactured and supplied by GKN Aerospace’s sites in Bristol and Cowes, UK.

GKN Aerospace has delivered the wing assembly for Supernal’s eVTOL technology demonstrator aircraft. It handed over the complete composite assembly in June and intends to deliver the vehicle’s booms before the end of this month. It builds the assemblies in the UK at facilities in Cowes and Bristol.

“We are excited to support Supernal’s multi-year eVTOL testing program,” said John Pritchard, president of civil airframes at GKN. “Delivering these vital aerostructures is a testament to our wealth of experience in the design and high-rate manufacturing of aerostructures.”
