History:
Started by acclaimed physicist and engineer Dr. Paul MacCready in 1971, AeroVironment quickly became a pioneer in the technology of unmanned aircraft. With Dr. MacCready's active role in all technology areas, his
team at AV developed aircraft which are used by NASA, the U.S. Military and other private companies. Many of his classic aircraft designs can be seen today in the Smithsonian American History Museum, the National
Air and Space Museum in Washington D.C. and the Museum of Flight in Seattle, WA. AeroVironment celebrates it's 50 year anniversary in 2021.
A pioneer in the field of alternative fuel, Dr. MacCready and AeroVironment teamed with GM in the late 1980's to create one of the first battery-powered concept cars. This car later became a factor in creating
California's Zero Emission Vehicle Mandate and was a great global example for alternative fuel vehicles.
