Quantum3D, a Silicon Valley-based company that develops flight simulation technologies for the aerospace and defense industries, has revealed its first mixed-reality flight simulator for an eVTOL air taxi. The company recently debuted its new simulator at the Airtaxi World Congress in San Francisco, where attendees had the opportunity to try their hand at piloting the LimoConnect, an eVTOL air taxi being developed by Limosa. 

Limosa, a Montréal-based start-up, also brought a subscale technology demonstrator to the Airtaxi World Congress for a public flight demonstration on October 5. It aims to have the seven-passenger aircraft certified for commercial operations in Canada by 2028.
