EL SEGUNDO, CA — Skyryse®, the creator of SkyOS, the world's first universal operating system for flight, is thrilled to announce that its Skyryse One aircraft has been honored by Fast Company magazine in their annual Innovation by Design Awards as one of the best transportation designs of 2024.

Fast Company’s Innovation by Design Awards celebrate the year’s most impactful and innovative design solutions across a variety of categories. The transportation category honors projects that significantly enhance mobility and transportation efficiency, making a lasting impact on how we navigate our world. Skyryse One, with its first-of-its-kind simplified controls and pilot-centric design, exemplifies these qualities, setting a new standard for airflight.

"We are deeply honored to be recognized by Fast Company in their Innovation by Design Awards," said Dr. Mark Groden, CEO of Skyryse. "This accolade is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team who have tirelessly worked to bring the vision of Skyryse One to life. We extend our heartfelt thanks to the judges, who come from some of the world’s most exciting design-led companies, for recognizing the transformative potential of our aircraft."

By removing the complex mechanical controls and replacing them with a single four-axis control stick reminiscent of that found in an F-35, Skyryse One brings a new level of simplicity and safety to aviation. As the company continues to advance its mission to make all of aviation simpler and safer, this recognition from Fast Company underscores the significant strides Skyryse is making to bring its mission to life.
