FI 2024: Joby shows full-scale eVTOL replica and plans for a Northern UK inter-urban network
July 21 2024
Joby Aviation is making its debut at Farnborough International Airshow (Hall4: Booth # 41000) with a full-scale replica aircraft and some outline plans for a UK intercity network.
While Joby believes London offers a significant opportunity for this new form of transport, we are also excited about the potential to connect the North, which suffers from underinvestment and limited connectivity,” said the company in a press release. “Joby’s electric air taxis offer a revolutionary solution, with quick and affordable zero emissions journeys. For example, Joby has the potential to connect Manchester Airport to Leeds in just 15 minutes, compared to an average 90 minutes by car. See network maps here.
“Joby’s commercial plans include offering a service that uses app-based aerial ridesharing to move people around congested cities, using quick charging to transport passengers while advancing progress toward zero-emission aviation.
