The German eVTOL aircraft developer has completed two of the four audits required by the EASA Design Organization Approval process.
EASA has completed two of the four audits required to assess the application for Design Organization Approval (DOA) submitted by eVTOL aircraft developer Lilium. The approval is required for all commercial aircraft manufacturers seeking to achieve type certification.
According to Germany-based Lilium, the completion of the audit demonstrates that it follows rigorous design processes agreed with the European regulator to prepare for type certification and serial production of the seven-passenger vehicle it aims to bring to market in 2025. The final audit is expected to be completed at the same time as the conclusion of the type certification process for the Lilium Jet.
