Brazilian private aviation group Avantto made a strong statement about its intention to be on the frontlines in the much-anticipated urban air mobility (UAM) revolution with its recent order for 100 of the four-passenger eVTOL aircraft being developed by Embraer subsidiary Eve. Company CEO Rogerio Andrade sees the purchase as a natural move forward in a market where his firm has more than 20 years of experience.

Avantto’s main offering is fractional ownership through which companies and individuals get access to aircraft by buying shares in a mixed fleet of business jets and rotorcraft. The fleet includes helicopters and also Embraer Phenom 300 and 100 fixed-wing aircraft produced by the Brazilian manufacturer.
