SKYPORTZ SIGNS AGREEMENT TO BRING 100 ELECTRIC AIR TAXIS TO MELBOURNE

written by Hannah Dowling | October 5, 2021

Melbourne-based startup Skyportz has officially signed an agreement with US manufacturer Electra.aero for the purchase of up to 100 hybrid electric short takeoff and landing (STOL) ‘air taxi’ aircraft.

The first delivery of the new aircraft to Skyportz is expected to take place in 2026, with the first demonstrator model set to grace Australian skies as soon as 2023.

The news comes after the two companies announced they had formed a strategic partnership last month.
