Allow us to introduce Aircraft Three... The unmistakable silhouette has landed at GKN Aerospace's Global Technology Centre, and is being built a stone's throw from where Concorde was assembled in Filton. Aircraft Three (AC3) is a carbon copy of our current flying prototype and will increase our test, and demonstration capability at Vertical. #eVTOL #VX4 #Aerospace

I had a fantastic week in NYC attending conferences, meeting customers, investors, analysts and media to update them on our progress and plans for the year ahead as we advance our Flightpath 2030 strategy. Thanks to J.P. Morgan and Cantor Fitzgerald for putting on great events and it was great to meet with Niraj Chokshi Siddharth Philip Keiren Buchanan, the team at NYSE Live amongst many others. Every time we tell our story, people understand why I am so excited about the potential for Vertical Aerospace to change the way we move and be a leader in this new transport category. Looking forward to being back later in the year. #vx4 #eVTOL #travel #verticalflight

We continue to strengthen the Vertical Flight Test Team, by welcoming Paul Stone, who brings 28 yrs flight test experience and is former Chief Test Pilot at Volocopter. His appointment as a test pilot comes at a pivotal moment as we advance our piloted flight test programme and begin the assembly of a third full-scale prototype to increase flight test capabilities. Vertical is now among the few eVTOL companies in the world with multiple test pilots to have flown full-scale eVTOLs. He joins Chief Test Pilot Simon Davies and test pilot Tim Eldridge at Vertical.

We’re excited to welcome Eamonn Brennan, former Director General of EUROCONTROL and Chief Exec of the Irish Aviation Authority, as an adviser to our Board. With 35 years of experience in aviation regulation, airspace management, and safety oversight, Eamonn will be instrumental in helping us navigate the certification journey for the VX4. His appointment comes at a pivotal time—we’ve recently completed piloted thrustborne testing and are now preparing for wingborne flight, a major milestone on the road to certification and commercialisation. Together, we’re pioneering electric aviation ✈️⚡ You can read more about the appointment here: https://lnkd.in/eiQPtXAR #ElectricAviation #eVTOL #FutureOfFlight #VX4 #VerticalAerospace
At Vertical, piloted test flights are a core part of our strategy. A pilot isn’t just flying the aircraft—they're the most effective flight test sensor, providing real-time insights into flight controls, human factors, handling qualities, and more. We’re fortunate to have Simon Davies as Chief Test Pilot; Si has flown everything from RAF Tornadoes to airships and almost everything in between. #eVTOL #VX4 #TestFlight #Aerospace
