It’s been a fun week, we fixed a bug in the real time flights that was hiding 90% of the real time flights. And, to celebrate, I made the email notification for paid SkyZero.io users link them straight to the flight.

I also released an eBook version of the eIPP articles, which will be sent to all paid users shortly as a thank you.

As usual, we will do analysis first, then the flight logs, then the low precision data report. We go in alphabetical order, starting with Archer, then BETA, then Joby and on to Vertical Aerospace.

Analysis

↘️ Archer

Archer didn’t fly as much as last week, but they still flew quite a bit. It’s all still CTOL.

↗️ BETA

BETA is up this week. Bravo Tango is touring in France (Le Havre, Normandie, St. Malo), and we aren’t sure where November Zulu is. The mix of VTOL and CTOL continues.

➡️ Joby

Flights are slightly up, minutes slightly down. All eyes are on the conforming craft, of course, details in the flights logs.

↗️ Vertical Aerospace

Up. So so so up.

Flight Logs

Archer (CTOL)

  • 4 flights (-3 over last week)

  • 1 hour 3 minutes of flight time (-1 hour 27 minutes over last week)
