On the occasion of the Le Bourget Air Show, where eVTOLs are exhibited for the first time, agreements are signed daily, such as the one between ADP and Autoflight for full-scale tests.
Next year, as you surely know, the Olympic and Paralympic Games will take place in France, specifically in Paris.
What does this agreement involve?
The two companies aim to experiment with “Prosperty 1” in Val D’Oise, from the Pontoise Vertiport. It is the first aerodrome in Île-de-France. Later, it will be followed by Issy-les-Moulineaux, Paris Austerlitz, Paris Charles de Gaulle, Paris Le Bourget, and finally Saint-Cyr l’Ecole. All are developed by the APD group, which has partnered with AutoFlight. It is especially the most advanced aerodrome in terms of technical skills, with dedicated takeoff and landing areas. There is also a maintenance hangar. Everything to best develop the mobility of tomorrow.
This partnership has two main stakes:
The first is to demonstrate to all competitors that AutoFlight’s eVTOL is the best. The “Prosperty 1” eVTOL has a range of 250 km. On the other hand, ADP wants to show its commitment to promoting innovative aerial mobility. This is timely, as eVTOLs feature innovative solutions but also aim to facilitate travel and deliveries in the near future.
This partnership between the two companies helps highlight the new mobility solutions envisioned by the Île-de-France region in the coming years.
