Otto Aerospace has a new business jet with no traditional passenger windows. Flexjet has signed a contract to buy 300 of the Phantom 3500 aircraft. The aircraft seats nine passengers in a tear-drop-shaped cabin lined with digital panes that display a virtual view of the outdoors. The plane's design helps cut fuel burn by 60% compared with other jets of similar size. The aircraft is still in development, with its first flight targeted for 2027.
