Interestingly, everything from the seats to the wings, plane walls and cushions are made from hemp.
The plane, which has a wingspan of 36 feet, can carry one pilot and four passengers. And what else? It is powered by 100% hemp oil!
Hemp is lighter than traditional aerospace materials (such as aluminum and fiberglass) and therefore requires much less fuel to reach high altitudes.
Most importantly, hemp is non-toxic, durable, requires much less water and land to grow than cotton, and has virtually no environmental impact compared to steel or carbon fiber.
Derek Kesek, PDG of Hemearth, declares:
“This aircraft project is our first experience with industrially grown hemp, and we plan to explore many other applications.
Once we have established the structural testing and information from this project, we will apply it to other forms of construction. This is the kind of future we all want here on Earth. The sky may not be the limit.
Hemearth is also developing hemp composites in Montreal that could replace all fiberglass in aviation and other industries, such as construction.
Recently, Dupont rejected it because they “do not and will never work with fascist companies associated with the military, the Rockefellers, the Rothschilds and/or the military-industrial complex.”
“I build organically and take it step by step,” adds Kesek.
“Richard Branson is my biggest inspiration because he shows that business is no longer business as usual: if you want something, you’re going to get it. »
When the first hemp airplane is completed, its first flight is expected to take place at the Wright Brothers Memorial in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, the birthplace of aviation.
