AutoFlight officially delivered its first Prosperity aircraft, a five-seater Prosperity aircraft, to a customer, a pioneering Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) operator in Japan, marking the world’s inaugural delivery of a civilian ton-class eVTOL (electric-vertical-take-off-and-landing) aircraft.

The Japanese operator is currently developing plans for demonstration eVTOL flights at the 2025 Osaka World Expo, as well as a wider AAM rollout in Japan.

AutoFlight delivered its first eVTOL aircraft to a AAM operator in Japan.

Another recent milestone for the eVTOL innovator is its CarryAll aircraft, a cargo variant of Prosperity, obtained Type Certification from the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) on March 22, which marked the world’s first eVTOL aircraft above one ton to be awarded type certification.

The CarryAll, with a maximum take-off weight of 2 tons, operates autonomously and on electric power. Its compliance verification encompassed various aspects, including performance control, stability, lift/thrust system, structural strength/composite blades, battery system, avionics system, electrical system, and flight performance.

Additionally, the CarryAll airworthiness certification prototype completed eight major compliance tests, including plateau performance, data link and ground station functions, involving 156 flights and exceeding a total flight distance of 10,000 kms.

“This achievement establishes a robust foundation for AutoFlight’s forthcoming large-scale commercial operations,” concluded Tian Yu, founder and co-chairman of AutoFlight.
