From market claims to site requirements

Choose an aircraft.
See what the site must support.

Explore aircraft expected through 2031, separate certification evidence from announced timelines, and translate published dimensions into a preliminary Lemon Road facility envelope.

Screening only. Manufacturer claims and target dates are not guarantees of certification, delivery, site approval, or safe operation.

Actual site geometry

Place the aircraft on Lemon Road

Select an aircraft and candidate to update its footprint against the parcel, mapped wetlands, buildings, terrain, trail, and stream constraints.

Readiness windows

Aircraft and site must arrive together

Company target dates are shown as uncertain windows beside a phased private-use development scenario. Neither track is a commitment.

FAA Part 157 normally requires notice at least 90 days before construction or a reportable change. County, fieldwork, utility, aircraft, and FAA schedules can overlap but remain independently uncertain.

Evidence before enthusiasm

“Target year” is the latest sourced company objective—not a forecast. Use the evidence and confidence labels to distinguish delivered aircraft from concepts.

Operating concept

Configure the initial operation. The result combines published aircraft data, FAA EB 105A screening geometry, and current Lemon site evidence.

Plan the power and support buildings

Explore planning-level charging loads and a phased set of facilities. Values reserve capacity for utility and concept review; they are not engineered sizes or final siting.

Electrical scenario

Charger rating Simultaneous chargers Support-building load allowance Cap managed charging at 80% of connected charger load

FAA/NREL observed 300–1,000 kW peak DC charging and recommends planning for 1 MW or greater where rapid operations are intended. Actual OEM equipment governs.

Sources and limitations

Every aircraft record links to its supporting sources. Missing manufacturer values remain missing; the tool does not silently infer them.

Geometry caution

Aircraft controlling dimension D is not propulsion reference diameter RD. FAA screening geometry cannot be completed when RD or aircraft-specific downwash data are unpublished. Part 103 ultralights are outside EB 105A’s formal scope.

Market caution

Certification targets frequently move. Preorders, reservations, demonstration flights, and foreign approvals are not U.S. type certification. Lilium has ended; Supernal S-A2, CityAirbus, Overair, and Textron Nexus are not treated as active market entrants. Volocopter is distressed but active.
