Eviation has recently introduced a redesigned version of its Alice all-electric commuter airplane, showcasing significant enhancements under its new leadership. This redesign follows a strategic collaboration with TLG Aerospace, a Seattle-based engineering firm, initiated to refine the aircraft's design after its initial test flight in September 2022. The Alice airplane, known for its electric propulsion, is poised to redefine standards in electric aviation by focusing on efficiency and sustainability.

In a world increasingly driven by the quest for sustainable and efficient urban transport solutions, Honda is setting the pace with its latest venture into the electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) market. With a legacy that spans both the highways and the skies, Honda is harnessing its storied history of innovation to craft an eVTOL aircraft that promises to redefine the urban air mobility landscape.

Vertical Flight Decoded: The difference Between Helicopters, eVTOL, eSTOL, and eCTOL Aircraft

The aviation industry is witnessing a significant shift with the rapid rise of eVTOL (electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing) aircraft, which is paving the way for a new era of urban air mobility. This emerging aircraft class includes eVTOLs (Electric Vertical Take-off and Landing), eSTOLs (Electric Short Take-off and Landing), and eCTOLs (Electric Conventional Take-off and Landing), each with unique benefits and applications when compared to traditional helicopters.

Eve Air Mobility recently unveiled Vector, their innovative urban air traffic management (Urban ATM) software, at the Airspace World event in Geneva. Vector is crafted to be an agnostic solution that is versatile and adaptable across different platforms, technologies, and operational environments within the Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) ecosystem. This quality is crucial and aims to safely manage the unique challenges posed by air traffic and network management within current and forthcoming Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) operations.

Businessaviation.aero - HOUSTON, Texas, March 18, 2024 -- EHang, a frontrunner in the Urban Air Mobility, announced the successful inaugural flight of its EH216-S, an unmanned electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing aircraft, in Latin America. This milestone event occurred at The Westin Reserva Conchal resort in Costa Rica’s Guanacaste province and was witnessed by national authorities and media. It was part of a ceremony dedicated to showcasing the benefits of Advanced Air Mobility (AAM), emphasizing its potential to foster sustainable development and improve the region’s quality of life and tourism experience.

Velizy-Villacoublay, France, March 14, 2024: Embraer and Dassault Systèmes have forged a unique partnership, harnessing the power of Dassault Systèmes' cutting-edge simulation technology to develop quieter electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft for Eve Air Mobility. This collaboration leverages the SIMULIA PowerFLOW application, which offers comprehensive fluid dynamics simulations to anticipate real-world operational conditions. Engineers can accurately evaluate the aircraft's flight performance and sound emissions.

Magpie Aviation is developing a transformative solution in electric aircraft technology, introducing an aero-towing system designed to significantly extend the range of electric aircraft flights, a critical step toward achieving commercially feasible electric aircraft transportation. This initiative aims to tackle one of the most pressing challenges facing electric and hydrogen-powered aircraft today: their limited range due to the current state of battery technology, without sacrificing the payload capacity critical for commercial viability.
