Company Performance Metrics
COBALT is the designer and manufacturer of the Co50 Valkyrie, a high-end, 5-seat aircraft for light business travel.
Created in Paris, France, as a blank-sheet project in 2005 by David LOURY, the Co50 convinced investors and partners to give birth to a new manufacturer, Cobalt. The development, testing, industrialization and certification took
a good 10 years, through which infallible shareholder support, cautious management, and focus on product development allowed to compose with the numerous obstacles typical of this kind of ventures.
The Valkyrie is manufactured today in Saguenay (QC), Canada, and is expected to enter into production once it gets its final approval from the authorities, or "Type Certificate", targetted for the end of 2014. As of 2013, further developments are being envisioned in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Given the outstanding market response to its product, Cobalt continues to focus on its certification and expects to open its order book once it has its Type Certificate in close sight.
