Our story startsin Kanpur, India.back in 2024.

What it costs to stay on the ground.

Hours that should belong to families and balance sheets, spent in traffic between cities that sit ninety minutes apart by air.

— Vol. I

A short readingin nine movements.

Vol. I

Three figures. One conclusion.

What the ground costs the people we serve.

Read left to right. The numbers, taken together, draw the bill we hand the very people we set out to serve.

The Stellére CharterForeword
Volume I · Articles I — VI

What we
have committed to.

Six articles. Plain language. Each weighed against a measurable fact.

Scroll
Article I · Provenance

Engineered in India,
flown out of the United Kingdom.

The design floor sits in Kanpur. The customer floor sits in London. One company, two continents, one mandate — the price of arriving in the sky finally has to fall.

32 engineers · 4,795 mi · single chain of command
Article II · Field of operation

Heliport-ready.
Day one.

A 12-metre wingspan that fits every existing UK heliport pad. We do not wait for vertiports to be built. We fly into what is already there.

Wingspan 12.0 m · UK pad 12.5 m · 17 pads in Greater London
Article III · Safety architecture

Six rotors, one pusher,
no single point of failure.

Six independent levels of redundancy with early load transfer to neighbouring rotors. A single failure never propagates. A second is absorbed. The aircraft lands.

6 + 1 propulsors · ARP4754A · DAL-A flight controls
Article IV · Certification

DGCA pathway.
EASA & UK acceptance.

An order-of-magnitude lower than the FAA route. Steered by a former Joint Director General of DGCA. Compliance not treated as a cost — treated as a moat.

FAA route ≈ $1B · DGCA route ≈ $60–100M
Article V · Economics

Ownership pays the airframe.
Subscription pays the rest.

A real share of a real aircraft. The hourly subscription covers crew, fuel, maintenance, hangar, insurance — the long tail of operating an aircraft.

≈ 70% recurring revenue · usage-billed hourly
Article VI · Access

A real share of a real aircraft —
on terms that have never existed in this asset class.

Not a charter card. Not a membership. Not a depreciating jet card balance. Ownership without an owner's headache, on terms designed for the ninety-nine in a hundred who were locked out of this entire category.

760,000 UK liquid millionaires · 341 currently own a private jet
