As part of its plan to secure the commercial air operator certificate it needs to start low-volume operations with its two-seat VoloCity eVTOL vehicle at next summer’s Paris Olympic Games, Volocopter has taken delivery of a Diamond DA-62 light aircraft. The German company said it will use the twin-engine, seven-seat aircraft to transport its employees and those of program partners, as well as make it available for charter flights by third parties.
According to Volocopter, operating the DA-62 will help it to “learn and map out the required processes as an airline operator” in preparation for getting approved for commercial services with its eVTOL fleet by German and European regulators. The investment will also support efforts to achieve airworthiness requirements and to prepare the company for its later role in maintaining and supporting eVTOL aircraft.
