Bluesky is developing a paid subscription system similar to X Premium. The curious details of the new system have become clear.

There is a three-point retractable landing gear at the front. The main landing gear is placed on the fuselage. In this way, it can easily land and take off at airports.

Among the prominent advantages of the W5000 are the autonomous flight and ground tracking systems that allow flight crews to track 6-7 vehicles at the same time. This system significantly reduces operational costs, bringing them down to only one tenth of the costs of aircraft in a similar class. The cost per ton-kilometer is also 40 percent lower. This gives the W5000 a significant competitive advantage.

According to the information provided by the manufacturer, the W5000 will serve South East and Central Asian countries. It will also be able to reach Russia and Japan.
