The future of flight is taking shape! 🚁
The FAA’s eVTOL Integration Pilot Program (eIPP) is testing next-generation aircraft designed to deliver cargo across the nation. Elroy Air and the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) tested the first remotely piloted hybrid-electric flight, helping us learn how these aircraft can safely operate in the National Airspace System.
