The goal of this effort is to streamline the certification and validation process for eVTOL aircraft like Midnight, globally.

In his comments today, Archer Founder and CEO Adam Goldstein said, “If you ever wanted to see a bat signal go up into the air and say Advanced Air Mobility is here, eVTOLS will be built, they will be certified and brought around the world, that’s today.” Following the event he remarked, “The Administration has made it clear: leadership in advanced aviation is a priority for President Trump and for the United States. This alliance paves the way for the international deployment of our Midnight aircraft, and is another step towards bringing these aircraft to skies around the world. Thank you to the FAA, to the DOT and our other partners in the industry.”

Following President Trump’s recent Executive Order, this is yet another example of industry momentum with an emphasis on the importance of deliberate and purposeful engagement between regulatory and industry leaders.
