After months of work, the AERONOVA team has completed the full restoration of the NOVA-01 airship!

• The envelope has been fully restored and has passed gas‑tightness testing.
• The gondola has been rebuilt — robust, lightweight, and ready for flight.
• Last week, gas filling was successfully completed — and the final assembly phase has begun!

Engineers are now installing the key systems of this next‑generation airship:

• onboard computer,
• battery packs,
• servos,
• tail assembly and reinforced nose module,
• maneuvering thruster,
• emergency flight termination system,
• and dozens of other critical components.

This is more than hardware. It is a step toward a new era of sustainable, quiet, and environmentally friendly aviation. Airships are making a comeback — and they will be smarter, safer, and more advanced than ever!

Very soon, NOVA-01 will take to the skies again to begin the second series of flight tests.
