Archer Aviation is partnering with Etihad Aviation Training (EAT) to recruit and train pilots to fly the California-based company’s Midnight eVTOL aircraft in the United Arab Emirates. Archer and EAT announced the partnership on Monday at the opening of the Future Aviation Forum in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, where the four-passenger Midnight air taxi is on display.

EAT, which is part of Etihad Aviation Group, recruits and trains pilots, cabin crew, maintenance technicians, and airport personnel for dozens of airlines at its facilities adjacent to Abu Dhabi International Airport. It is one of the largest training facilities in the Middle East, with nine full-flight simulators and seven flight training devices for Boeing and Airbus aircraft.
