About

Kitty Hawk, a pioneering electric aviation company, laid off a significant portion of its workforce in early 2020 as part of a strategic shift. While exact figures were not publicly detailed, the move followed the winding down of its Flyer program and a refocusing of efforts. The company, backed by Google co-founder Larry Page, was part of the emerging advanced air mobility industry. This restructuring occurred as the company pivoted its resources toward other aviation projects, reflecting the challenges and strategic recalibrations common in the capital-intensive aerospace startup sector.
