Air Taxis

Known more for its work with traditional aviation manufacturers and airlines, Honeywell is also heavily invested in the advanced air mobility space—and vice versa.

The eVTOL manufacturer and new partner InterGlobe will initially offer air taxi services in the Indian cities of Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru.

The manufacturer selected Garmin, Liebherr-Aerospace, and Intergalactic to provide the flight controls, avionics, and thermal management system for its electric air taxi.

Beta is developing two variants of its all-electric Alia, but the manufacturer hopes to install charging infrastructure for all aircraft to use.

The Utah Department of Transportation’s Aeronautics Division released a report on how drones, electric air taxis, and other new aircraft may fit into the state’s skies.

An agreement with the British Columbia-based helicopter airline represents the first eVTOL purchase from a Canadian air carrier and Beta’s first sale in the country.

The Canadian manufacturer initially set its sights on a five-seat prototype before pivoting to a larger model.

The vertiport infrastructure and charging station provider looks to expand its presence on the other side of the Pacific.

Bristow agreed to buy two VoloCity eVTOLs—and help the German firm build a presence in the U.S. and U.K.

We explore that question and more in this week’s Future of FLYING newsletter.
