Paris Air Show Will Put eVTOL Aircraft Set To Star on World Stage

Ten or more eVTOL aircraft developers will be vying for attention (and in some cases, fresh funding) at this month’s Paris Air Show (June 19-25). Due to Covid restrictions in 2021, the biennial event hasn’t been staged at Le Bourget Airport since 2019, at which time the advanced air mobility field was still in its infancy. Now, some of the sector's leaders say they will have aircraft certified and in commercial service by 2025.
