The Biden Administration formed the Federal AAM Interagency
Working Group to meet the requirements of the Advanced Air Mobility
Coordination and Leadership Act, which was passed by Congress and
signed into law in October 2022. The working group supports the
goal of achieving safe integration of Advanced Air Mobility into
the national airspace and ensuring that the U.S. maintains its
global leadership position in the aerospace industry. This is being
done in order to grow new transportation options, amplify economic
activity and jobs, advance environmental sustainability and new
technologies, and support emergency preparedness and
competitiveness.
“It was inspiring to see the level of support from across the
federal government focused on ensuring the safe entry of eVTOL
aircraft into the U.S. market in 2025,” said Adam Goldstein,
Founder and CEO of Archer. “For many of our guests, this was the
first time they’ve been able to witness an eVTOL aircraft flight in
person. Our showcase emphasized just how far along we are, and
demonstrated the safety and low noise advantages of eVTOL
aircraft.”
Archer’s goal is to transform urban travel, replacing 60-90
minute commutes by car, with estimated 10-20 minute electric air
taxi flights that are safe, sustainable, low noise and cost
competitive with ground transportation. With a range of up to 100
miles, Archer’s Midnight is a piloted, four passenger aircraft
designed to perform rapid back-to-back flights with minimal charge
time in between flights.
