Key Takeaways:

Electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) startup Joby (NYSE: JOBY) has successfully completed its second of four system reviews required as part of the FAA’s aircraft type certification process, the company announced this week.

The step is a sign of progress for Joby after it told investors in November that it was delaying the commercial service launch of its eVTOL services until 2025, partly because of regulatory hurdles.
