Embraer's Eve Urban Mobility Solutions is to provide up to 60,000 flight hours in its planned four-passenger eVTOL aircraft for the Blade Air Mobility transportation network. According to an agreement announced today, starting in 2026 Eve will provide up to 60 of its all-electric aircraft through a network of local operators to serve Blade customers in South Florida and the U.S. West Coast.
Eve, which refers to the new model generically as the Electrical Vertical Aircraft, started simulated trials last July in an engineering simulator and then in October 2020 achieved an initial flight with a proof-of-concept unit. With its Embraer sister company Atech, it has also been working on urban air traffic management technology, partly through a collaboration with the UK Civil Aviation Authority.
