The acquisition is intended to speed up the certification process for Wisk’s self-flying Generation 6 electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) air taxi.

The manufacturer claims the models will comprise the first family of hydrogen-powered, zero-emission, vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) jets.

The newly formed operator is working with Ferrovial Vertiports to build a network for the manufacturer’s flagship Lilium Jet in Florida and California, including Los Angeles.

The manufacturer and realtor are joining forces to build an air taxi ecosystem including South San Francisco, Napa, San Jose, Oakland, and Livermore.

The company’s ElevateOS offering comprises a core operating system, rider and pilot apps, and matching engine that connects users to flights much like ride-hailing services.

The proposed standards represent a major milestone in the certification of electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVOL) air taxis and other novel designs.

The German firm becomes the first European eVTOL manufacturer to establish a regional office in Shenzhen’s Bao’an District.

The longtime collaborators will partner to introduce Airbus’ CityAirbus NextGen, an electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) design for a pilot plus three passengers.

The company is one of two electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) air taxi manufacturers to receive the approval, the other being Joby Aviation.

The electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) air taxi manufacturer in the future will look to integrate autonomy onto its flagship aircraft.
