Eve eVTOL aircraft
Brazilian aviation safety regulator ANAC has established the criteria it will use for the type certification of Eve Air Mobility's four-passenger eVTOL aircraft.

Brazil’s National Civil Aviation Agency (ANAC) has published the final version of the airworthiness criteria that will be used for type certification of the four-passenger eVTOL aircraft being developed by Eve Air Mobility. The milestone announced on November 4 follows an extensive consultation process, with the agency and manufacturer now focused on defining the means of compliance to meet the requirements.

“The feedback received during the public consultation phase was invaluable in refining these [airworthiness] criteria,” said Eve’s chief technology officer, Luiz Valentini. “We are now looking forward to continue working closely with ANAC on type certification and with the FAA on the simultaneous validation of the ANAC type certificate.”
