NBAA-BACE is using its 2026 Las Vegas show to put advanced air mobility in front of the business-aviation crowd. The lineup includes electric, hybrid and hydrogen aircraft aimed at short-range passenger, cargo and coastal missions.
Among the displays, Beyond Aero is showing the ONE, a hydrogen-electric business-aircraft concept for six passengers and missions up to 800 nautical miles. DTA Aircraft is bringing its JP1, a two-seat hybrid eVTOL prototype with more than 200 flight hours. REGENT will show its all-electric Seaglider, while pointing to an expanded $15 million U.S. Marine Corps contract for its Viceroy platform.
The importance is less about immediate charter availability and more about where operators are looking next. Business aviation is still built around jets, but the show floor is increasingly a test bed for shorter, cleaner and more specialized aircraft.
