Following on from the announcement earlier this week that FBO operator Atlantic Aviation had reached a deal with Archer to develop eVTOL infrastructure starting with its facilities in Los Angeles, New York, as well as Northern California and South Florida, the company has revealed that it has announced a collaboration with eVTOL company Joby to develop supporting architecture in New York and Southern California.
The collaboration with Joby will see Atlantic install Joby’s Global Electric Aviation Charging System (GEACS). The two companies will undertake a comprehensive analysis of how Joby’s revolutionary air taxi can operate at these locations alongside traditional aircraft and other electric aircraft.
“Infrastructure is a critical piece of the puzzle, and Atlantic’s presence in these two key US markets will help ensure we’re well positioned to deliver a meaningful service for our customers,” said JoeBen Bevirt, founder and CEO of Joby Aviation. “We’re excited to be working together to lay the foundation for the next generation of clean and quiet flight.”
