DeSantis Launches Advanced Air Mobility Demonstration Flights
Florida has taken a major step towards a new era of transportation with the launch of Advanced Air Mobility demonstration flights. Two electric aircraft, commonly referred to as ‘flying cars,’ took to the skies over Tampa Bay, marking the beginning of a series of tests led by the Florida Department of Transportation. The initiative, announced by Gov. Ron DeSantis, aims to explore the potential of electric aircraft for commercial use, with the state working alongside companies like Joby Aviation and BETA Technologies. The demonstration flights were first reported by CBS12.
