Eve and Falko announce partnership; potential order for 200 eVTOLs

MELBOURNE, Fla., - Eve UAM, LLC, an Embraer S.A. company, and Falko Regional Aircraft Limited, a commercial regional aircraft leasing company, announced a letter of intent which contemplates a potential order for 200 of Eve’s electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft (eVTOL) and a commercial partnership to develop a global network of eVTOL operators in support of Urban Air Mobility (UAM) missions.

The partnership between Eve and Falko will begin by establishing a working group to collaborate with Falko’s existing operators to develop initial route networks where Eve’s aircraft can be deployed in early adopter markets. Additionally, Eve’s agnostic product portfolio of next-generation air traffic management software, service capabilities, and fleet operations services will also be introduced to create a safe, scalable network for each Falko lessee using Eve’s aircraft. Falko has been closely cooperating with Embraer since 2014 and chose Eve as its UAM partner.
