Vaeridion Partners With Garmin for Microliner Test Aircraft
All-electric regional concept to feature G600 TXi avionics
Vaeridion Microliner
Munich-headquartered Vaeridion was formed in 2021 and is developing a nine-passenger, all-electric regional concept called the Microliner. A multi-engine, single-propellor propulsion system will power a glider-inspired airframe.

Vaeridion has selected Garmin’s G600 TXi flight displays for its Microliner prototype, marking what the German regional aviation startup believes is a “significant milestone in advancing the electric aircraft’s development.” The choice was announced on Thursday during the Aero Friedrichshafen show.

As Vaeridion pursues further funding to build its first test aircraft, the company said that the Garmin G600 TXi solution was a “natural choice” for its avionics requirements. Vaeridion chief technical officer Markus Kochs Kämper added that “particularly for [the] test aircraft, the system provides reliability, flexibility, and situational awareness needed to support a rigorous flight-test campaign.” A first flight is currently targeted for 2027.
