Private jet charter group Vista Global is the main investor in a Series B funding round for eVTOL aircraft developer Dufour Aerospace. In a January 23 announcement, the Swiss-based start-up confirmed that Vista has joined existing investors and two new backers in providing an undisclosed capital investment in its plans to bring the Aero2 and Aero3 vehicles to market.

Vista has not said whether it intends to operate Dufour’s eVTOL aircraft as part of its charter business. The group has subsidiaries including VistaJet, Air Hamburg, and Jet Edge, which offer private charter flights.
