Eve Air Mobility reports it has reached its 50th successful test flight with its full-scale engineering prototype, accumulating over two hours of flight time.
“Since the aircraft’s first flight on December 19, 2025, these flights have generated high‑fidelity data and knowledge gains that are strengthening Eve’s understanding of performance and systems behavior as the company advances toward the future certification pathway of its eVTOL,” said the company in a press release.
“Reaching 50 successful test flights with our engineering prototype is more than a technical milestone. It is clear evidence of the maturity of our program and the strength of the solutions we are building,” said Johann Bordais, chief executive officer at Eve.
The company expects to begin producing its conforming prototypes this year, progressing toward a total of six that will be used in the certification flight test campaign with Brazil’s civil aviation authority, ANAC. With 50 test flights completed, Eve is now expanding flight envelope evaluations, gradually increasing forward speed, evaluating energy management, controllability and stability, noise and vibration, among others, leading to full transition flights later this year.
