The first RH-1-B production aircraft is now expected to be delivered in December 2023, with the first customer set to be the UN's World Food/World Health program.

Its Phoenix 2 test aircraft achieved full transitions between vertical and horizontal flight at speeds of around 100 kt during testing in Spain.

The new operator says the model's short-takeoff-and-landing capability and range of 800 miles will mean it can reach anywhere in Korea from its base at Seongnam City, near the capital, Seoul.

The battery-electric model is intended to carry up to nine passengers on flights of around 500 miles, and the manufacturer now aims for it to enter commercial service in 2026.

The FAA said the standards are interim and would change over time as more data is gathered about eVTOLs and their operations.

An initial tethered takeoff marks the start of extensive flight testing for the four-passenger vehicle, which is expected to enter service with several major international airlines.

The Japanese start-up's SD-05 all-electric vehicle is expected to operate congestion-busting flights of up to just 10 kilometers, when it begins air taxi services at the World Expo 2025 in Osaka.

Michael Cervenka, president of UK-based eVTOL aircraft developer Vertical Aerospace told Honeywell's Air Mobility Summit that there must be alignment on policy, regulation and global collaboration.

Working with helicopter charter flight group Blade, Eve conducted a simulation of what its eVTOL aircraft could do for travelers in the sprawling U.S. city and its suburbs. Blade plans to add eVTOL vehicles to its network in America and India.

The U.S. aviation regulator has published safety guidelines for key advanced air mobility ground infrastructure.

House of Representatives aviation subcommittee chair Larsen sees the upcoming bill to approve spending by the U.S. aviation regulation addressing broad issues such as infrastructure for advanced air mobility..

Flight trials conducted this week at Pontoise airfield near Paris saw Volocopter's 2X eVTOL vehicle flying alongside Pipistrel's Velis Electro aircraft and M3's Boreal UAS drone to show how crewed and uncrewed traffic can mix in lower airspace.

The company founded by Google gurus Larry Page and Sebastian Thrun says it is still "working out what's next" but has decided to wind down its operation.

The U.S. aviation safety agency now says it needs to develop a special federal aviation regulation to facilitate the use of advanced air mobility vehicles in commercial operations and to address pilot training.

The document provides a roadmap for the adoption of an urban air mobility ecosystem with pilotless air taxis. 

The Swedish company has delayed the start of manufacturing from 2022 to 2023 as it works on further refinements to the design of its Jetson One single-seater personal eVTOL vehicle.

The rotocraft operator, with a fleet of 21 Airbus helicopters, is looking at how eVTOL aircraft could be deployed for commercial services across Chile, Ecuador, and Peru.

Charter flight broker Flapper wants to use hypersonic, hydrogen-powered aircraft developed by Destinus to speed up cargo flights between Europe and Latin America.

A new report predicts that the global market for air taxis will grow at a CAGR of 19.6 percent over the next five years, reaching an estimated value of just over $2.3 billion by 2027.

The UK-based startup is seeking to optimise existing superconductor technology to develop its Forerunner family of electric-ducted-fan engines to power flights of up to around 600 km.
