The growth of the eVTOL and advanced air mobility industry has resulted in record membership at the Vertical Flight Society (VFS), which now has 160 corporate members. This represents a 60 percent increase since January 2018, when corporate membership first exceeded 100, and a 110 percent increase over the past five years. In addition, the society now has more than 6,300 individual members, nearly a 20 percent net increase since January 2018, when it had 5,300 members.
Historically, the vertical flight industry has been dominated by helicopter manufacturers and related companies. VFS was founded as the American Helicopter Society in 1943, but it has refocused as the eVTOL sector emerged in the past several years to serve potential new markets, such as urban air taxis, air ambulance services, logistics, cargo, organ transport, and other civil and military missions.
