Regent's Ground-Effect Vehicle Reimagines Coastal Travel

Regent Craft is developing a ground-effect vehicle, known as a seaglider, designed to fly just above the water on coastal routes. The electric craft promises faster, more efficient passenger travel between coastal cities without the need for airports or runways. Readers are discussing the technology's revival of an old concept, its regulatory path, and whether it can overcome the operational challenges that grounded earlier ground-effect designs.

Why now: Renewed interest in electric seagliders as a potential alternative for coastal passenger transport has sparked fresh debate about the technology's feasibility.
