Shaping Commercial Airspace Rules with Real-World Test Flights
Joby Aviation has begun a week-long campaign of operational test flights across the Dallas-Fort Worth area, generating real-world data to help shape rules for commercial electric air taxi routes. The flights are part of the eVTOL Integration Pilot Program, a US Department of Transportation initiative. Joby will fly routes from Perot Field Fort Worth Alliance Airport to Dallas Fort Worth International Airport and major urban hubs, demonstrating low noise operations and producing operational data for the Federal Aviation Administration. This campaign was reported by Aerospace Testing International.
