Our Take on the PAT 200
VerdeGo has a very competent leadership team with a well-formulated design, and are located in a convenient location for aerospace development. The company is hardly 6 months old, founded in December of 2017. There is not much in terms of technical detail available at this time regarding the PAT 200, but the timeline set forth by VerdeGo is ambitious and tractable, judging by the composure of the team. While young as a company, this is a great team to keep a close watch on.
