The working group will collaborate with Falko’s current operators to develop those initial route networks where Eve’s aircraft can be deployed.
Furthermore, to provide a scalable network for each leasee of Falko using eVTOL, Eve’s product portfolio comprising next-generation air traffic management software, service capabilities and fleet operations services will be introduced to them.
Since 2014, Falko has been cooperating with Embraer and opted Eve as its Urban Air Mobility mission partner.
Falko CEO Jeremy Barnes said: “I am thrilled to announce this huge development in our long-standing and successful relationship with Embraer. We are very excited by our strategic partnership with Eve, which forms part of our drive to be at the forefront of the greening of the aviation sector.
