Joby Aviation

The eVTOL developer will also deliver nine air taxis to U.S. Air Force bases, with the first two aircraft expected to arrive at Edwards Air Force Base in California in early 2024.

Joby Aviation has begun wind tunnel testing with one of its eVTOL aircraft propellers in the National Full-Scale Aerodynamic Complex at NASA's Ames Research Center in California.

Joby Aviation says it has notched another major milestone on the path to type certification for its five-seat eVTOL air taxi vehicle.

The FAA conducted an in-person, multi-day day audit of Joby’s eVTOL at the company’s facilities in Marina, California, to complete the second of four systems reviews required for its type certification program. 

The company and school will prepare the next generation of engineers and maintenance technicians for what Joby calls "the electric age of flight."

Joby has signed an expansion to its contract with the U.S. Air Force’s Agility Prime program, increasing its potential value by $45 million.

The Japanese automaker's $800 million growth-stage Woven Capital Fund could make further investments in urban air mobility.
