Spotted: flybladenow and BETA Technologies making history while completing their first electric vertical take-off and landing in New York.
The demonstration was carried out on Tuesday at the Westchester County Airport in White Plains, New York, which is located about an hour north of the city. During the flight, which can be seen in the video below, a prototype of Beta’s ALIA-250 eVTOL flew one pass over the airport alongside a conventional helicopter, before completing another by itself.
“This demonstration is a big milestone in our transition from helicopters to electric vertical aircraft, and we are pleased that our partners at Beta have designed the right aircraft with the requisite range, capacity, and noise profile, for use in our key markets, including our homebase of New York City,” Blade CEO Rob Wiesenthal said in a statement. “We are confident EVAs will be a game-changer both for our company and New York City’s transportation system once certified by the FAA.
