Archer Aviation

Southwest Airlines is the latest major airline to explore the possibility of eVTOL air taxi travel and has chosen Archer Aviation’s technology to help get it there. The two companies have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to develop a network of electric air taxi operations across multiple airports, beginning in California.

Blossoming eVTOL developer Archer Aviation has announced a signed Memorandum of Understanding with Signature Aviation. This agreement enables access to key hubs for United Airlines and a network of private airport terminals in the US to operate commercial air taxi rides using eVTOLs.

Archer Aviation continues to make developmental headway in its quest to commercial eVTOL operations. Archer recently completed a successful transition flight—one of the trickiest maneuvers to overcome in eVTOL design. The advanced air mobility developer filmed the entire journey, reaching flight speeds of over 100 mph.

One week after sharing plans to bring commercial eVTOL operations to South Korea, advanced air mobility developer Archer Aviation is touting a key milestone in the US. The eVTOL air taxi manufacturer has received Part 135 certification from the FAA – a vital certificate to begin commercial flights – and Archer is now one of two air taxi companies worldwide to confirm the receipt of one.

Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft developer Archer Aviation is continuing to lay the global groundwork for commercial operations in a new territory: South Korea. The next-generation aircraft specialist has announced a new partnership with Korea’s leading mobility-as-a-service company, KaKaoMobility, to participate in the country’s Grand Challenge and bring eVTOL travel to the region quickly.

One month to the day after announcing a partnership with the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to launch its initial eVTOL operations in the Middle East, advanced air mobility developer Archer Aviation is celebrating another potential deal worth up to $500 million. Here’s the latest.

Less than a month after announcing plans to implement commercial air taxi services in the UAE, eVTOL developer Archer Aviation has signed a separate agreement with InterGlobe Enterprises to bring its zero-emissions aircraft mobility to India, pending regulatory approvals.

Two of the more prominent developers in electric aircraft – BETA Technologies and Archer Aviation have announced they are collaborating to help roll out an interoperable charging network to support a multitude of electric vehicles.

Less than ten days after announcing an agreement to implement air taxi operations in the United Arab Emirates, eVTOL developer Archer Aviation has finally taken its Midnight Aircraft to the skies. Following its first flight, Archer can begin the process of certification to begin commercial air taxi operations.

A mere few months after receiving FAA certification to begin eVTOL test flights in the US, Archer Aviation has found its first international launch partner for all-electric air taxi services in the United Arab Emirates. Through a recently signed MOU, Archer will work to implement the necessary infrastructure to enable commercial services on the wings (or rotors, rather) of incentives from Abu Dhabi.

eVTOL developer Archer Aviation shared an exciting Q2 2023 financial results call complete with three signification updates, including airworthiness certification from the FAA and a fresh round of investments from some big names like Stellantis and United.

eVTOL developer Archer Aviation continues to build and expand upon existing relationships with its partners and customers. Today’s news includes an expanded partnership with the United States Department of Defense in which the Air Force is planning to acquire a number of Midnight eVTOLs from Archer Aviation.

Over six months after expanding upon an existing partnership to bring mass production of eVTOLs to the US, Stellantis and Archer Aviation have shared a progress update. The partnership has now moved from the “concept phase” to the “execution phase” as its high-volume eVTOL production facility continues construction in Georgia.

Archer Aviation announced Thursday that the first Midnight eVTOL has gone through final assembly as it prepares to take flight this summer.

Leading global airline company United Airlines is set to launch the first electric air taxi route in Chicago in collaboration with Archer Aviation using Archer’s electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft.

Multinational automaker Stellantis announced it is expanding upon a previous partnership with Archer Aviation, adding its manufacturing experience to aid in producing the latter company’s electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. Named “Midnight,” this eVTOL is now planned to be mass produced on US soil.
