Electric flying taxi company Archer Aviation has completed 400 test flights, four months ahead of its scheduled goal for the year.
The test flights produced data used to evaluate and refine flying vehicle loads, vibrations, performance and handling, according to the company.
The flights included longer distance flights to gather data, increased daily operations to simulate busy flight days, landings in various wind conditions and hovering to collect data on noise.
“When we first set our goal for 400 flights this year it was viewed as aggressive, but here we are in August already knocking it out,” said Adam Goldstein, CEO and founder of Archer. “I’m proud of the Archer flight test team and the supporting groups that made it happen.”
Interesting that a major airline has already ordered 100 are they looking to bypass the limo trade and get their customers directly home from their hubs ?
