Falcon Aviation Teams with AutoFlight for eVTOL Services in the Middle East and Africa
Falcon Aviation Services, a helicopter and fixed-wing charter operator in the UAE, has partnered with AutoFlight to come up with a strategy for advanced air mobility (AAM) in the Middle East and Africa. Autoflight is a Chinese start-up developing an autonomous eVTOL aircraft for commercial air taxi, cargo, and firefighting applications, as well as sightseeing flights for tourists. The company claims to have set the record for the longest flight of an eVTOL aircraft with its fourth-generation prototype earlier this year.
Abu Dhabi-based Falcon Aviation also plans to operate Archer’s Midnight eVTOL aircraft in Dubai, and last year the company partnered with Eve Air Mobility to launch eVTOL air taxi services from the Atlantis luxury resort in the city. Falcon Aviation has also expressed interest in developing and operating vertiports.
