The Ion Aircraft Ion is a two-seat, twin boom, pusher configuration light aircraft based on the DreamWings Valkyrie. It was still in development in 2010 but is intended either for homebuilding from kits or flyaway production, with versions meeting US and European rules.
By November 2020 production had not started and the company was for sale.[2] Geode Capital Management completed the acquisition of Ion Aircraft on 10 September 2021.
