The eVTOL Industry: “Inevitable Ups and Downs of 2024.” Those magnificent men in their flying machines have raced through another year with some great ups, but also inevitable downs. It was going to be 2024 when the first electric air taxis began commercial flights. This was moved to 2025 and let’s be honest, it may be 2026. But then who cares about reality, when you are being sucked in to a phantasmagorical, business disrupting dream, that ticks all the green boxes and relieves the increasing road congestion of global cities. What’s a few years amongst like-minded people? https://lnkd.in/etaSn2g9 #eVTOL #ElectricAviation #AirTaxi #UrbanMobility #AviationInnovation #SustainableTransport #FutureOfFlight #AerialMobility #GreenTechnology
