Beyond the Edge is committed to helping bring potentially world-changing ideas and technologies quickly into practical use. The enterprise was founded by Richard F. Schaden, an aeronautical engineer, active ATP-rated pilot, businessman and internationally renowned trial lawyer.
“Aviation transportation innovation has been at a standstill and offers few efficient propulsion alternatives,” said Richard Schaden, Founder of Beyond The Edge. “When you get the right people together, such as the Bye Energy team, the impossible becomes imaginable.”

The Green Flight Project, which launched in mid-February, is intended to enhance the development of an electric and electric-hybrid propulsion system (EHPS) for commercial application.
