The Design Organisation Approval (DOA) from the UK's Civil Aviation Authority enables Evolito to apply for Type Certification of its electric propulsion systems
Joby, ANA Holdings and Nomura Real Estate Development plan to jointly explore the design, location, operation, and financing of vertiport locations that will serve as the backbone of future commercial air taxi services in Japan
Arrival of the complete fuselage for the first revolutionary Lilium jet at the company's final assembly line for start of production marks a definitive shift from the design phase to industrialization
The certification from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is seen as a pivotal moment in aviation history, and positions Doroni as a leader in the growing field of personal air transportation
Lilium selected Honeywell's MicroVCS (Vapor Cycle System) to optimize cabin cooling and manage the aircraft's electric battery temperatures, both critical functions for enabling more efficient and sustainable flight
VI&E Solutions will expand refueling options to include their universal multi-modal electric charging station, sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and hydrogen to service all types of hybrid and fully electric VTOLs
The initial Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) Operations Center will be built out in collaboration with NUAIR at the Syracuse Hancock International Airport, with an aim to test and transition it to additional locations by 2025
The award will enable Piasecki to demonstrate its Aerial Reconfigurable Embedded System (ARES) tilt-duct vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) unmanned aerial system (UAS) and hydrogen fuel cell propulsion technologies
The approval means Lilium is qualified to design and hold a type certificate for aircraft developed according to European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) SC-VTOL rules
Students were invited to Springfield-Beckley Municipal Airport, Ohio, a hub for eVTOL research, development and testing, and had the opportunity to fly simulators from BETA and Joby
The Velaris service provides secure satellite communications for commercial Urban Air Mobility (UAM) vehicles, such as Bellwether's Oryx eVTOL, to integrate with aircraft in commercial airspace
This will enable Kookiejar and Air Chateau to develop networks of vertiports in Dubai connected via Eve Air Mobility's Urban Air Traffic Management (ATM) system
Urban-Air Port and Micro Nav will use the simulation to train its operators, clients and demonstrate how a UAP vertiport provides a viable and sustainable business case for eVTOL operators
Kansai Electric Power Company (KEPCO) and Vertical Aerospace will establish a joint working group to study, define and research electric chargers and infrastructure standards
The $9.8 million California Competes grant will support expansion of manufacturing footprint in Marina, CA, creation of 690 new roles, and enable acceleration of early manufacturing to support initial commercial operations
A working group will be created to explore the policies and infrastructure needed to implement an integrated, sustainable eVTOL program at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW)
