  1. Blade To Benefit From 30 Electric Vertical Aircraft From Wisk Aero
    Wisk is an Urban Air Mobility (UAM) company dedicated to delivering safe, everyday flight for everyone and is the company behind the first all-electric, autonomous eVTOL aircraft in the U.S. Following FAA certification, Blade and Wisk intend to deploy the aircraft on short-distance routes between Blade’s network of dedicated terminals throughout the U.S., with Wisk aircraft being chartered by Blade at an hourly rate on those routes. Wisk will be compensated based on Blade flight time utilized on the aircraft, which will be owned, operated, and maintained by Wisk for Blade’s use.
  2. With Wisk's work in the Electric Vertical Aircraft space Urban Air mobility will be quieter and near emissions free for operations. The environmental value here is real. "We look forward to working with Wisk to help accelerate Blade’s transition from conventional rotorcraft to safe, quiet, emission-free Electric Vertical Aircraft," said Rob Wiesenthal, CEO of Blade. Wisk currently operates autonomous eVTOL aircraft pursuant to experimental type certificates and plans to begin initial test flights in Blade’s key service areas when possible.
