Eve and Falko Partner Up To Develop Global Operator eVTOL Network

Eve and Falko Regional Aircraft have entered into a Letter of Intent (LoI) for a potential order for 200 of Eve’s electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft (eVTOL), as well as a partnership to develop a global network for eVTOL operators as a way to support Urban Air Mobility (UAM) missions.

The partnership will commence with the establishment of a working group that will collaborate with Falko’s existing operators. This is to develop the initial route networks where Eve’s aircraft can be deployed.

To provide a safe, scalable network for each Falko lessee, Eve’s product portfolio consisting of next-generation air traffic management software, service capabilities, and fleet operations services will also be introduced to them.

“I am thrilled to announce this huge development in our long-standing and successful relationship with Embraer. We are very excited by our strategic partnership with Eve which forms part of our drive to be at the forefront of the greening of the aviation sector,” says Jeremy Barnes, CEO of Falko. He continues, “We firmly believe in the prospects of the eVTOL market and that Eve, with the support of Embraer’s experience in the manufacturing, certification, and support of aircraft, will be a market leader.”

Andre Stein, co-CEO of Eve, added, “Our partnership with Falko, a trusted aircraft leasing leader, cements our position in the global Urban Air Mobility marketplace and not only widens our potential operator base through Falko’s global customer footprint but increases our ability to provide full-stack solutions, through partnerships.” He further states “We are proud to have Falko as a strategic partner in Eve as our two organizations collaborate to lead a new generation of sustainable innovation, in aviation.”
