Joby Aviation leads the quiet eVTOL revolution

The bull case argued for Joby Aviation is that its quiet, electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft will revolutionize short-hop urban transit as it nears FAA certification.

The argument

The guest argued that Joby is the furthest along in the eVTOL space, already producing aircraft that meet FAA protocols and entering the pilot-testing phase. The near-silent nature of electric flight solves the noise pollution issues that have historically limited traditional helicopter services like Blade.

The thesis, stress-tested
✓ What validates it
  • FAA pilots beginning official test flights of Joby aircraft within the next two to six months
  • Launch of commercial services in Dubai and the UAE under existing agreements
▸ Risks discussed
  • Regulatory delays in final FAA certification
  • Capital dilution concerns if the pre-revenue phase is prolonged
Hear it yourself
"And they have taken that through the the certification process up until the point where the next step is getting the FAA pilots to get in them and start doing the test that that Joby has done on the aircraft."
