Four signals shaping Advanced Air Mobility this week: Archer’s Florida eIPP selection moves Midnight closer to H2 2026 operations, BETA Technologies completes 23 flights in Scotland and signs an expansion MOU with Loganair, Aviation Week surfaces the maintenance workforce bottleneck no commercial model is pricing, and Electra’s EL9 joins the eIPP as the one participant whose infrastructure math bypasses the vertiport dependency entirely.
Georgia is quietly becoming one of the most active states in the advanced air mobility and UAS ecosystem — and AGS Xchange 2026 is where that community converges. From SkyDrive’s U.S. expansion to BVLOS healthcare access and Counter-UAS defense applications, this one-day event at Augusta Regional Airport covers the full spectrum of what’s next. Electric Air Mobility News was there — and will have many of the speakers on the podcast in the weeks ahead.
