Ion Aircraft

The genesis of Ion Aircraft is actually the story of someone else's failure.

Some readers may remember a Kansas company named DreamWings and their flagship airplane, the Valkyrie.

The Valkyrie was a sleek, speedy looking airplane that took your breath away just to see it on a computer screen. The effect was even better when you saw the prototype airplane "in the flesh." Dozens of DreamWings depositors made their decision to buy a plane while they were sitting at the controls of the prototype, a happy grin on their face. They had found the perfect plane.

One thing led to another--dreams were crushed, careers were ruined, no planes were ever delivered and in 2001 DreamWings ceased operations forever. When DreamWings closed its doors, it left 145 customers behind--customers who lost nearly $1.5 million in deposit money.

We are those customers.

Ion Aircraft is testament to what professional, committed people can do if they work together as a cohesive unit to achieve a goal. It is also our rebel yell and our gesture of defiance, our stubborn refusal to die.
