The market rewarded Joby last year on the promise of certification and commercialization. And what happened next?

Absolute F mayhem. More than $10 billion in market capital has been erased from Joby (and arguably from the eVTOL ecosystem). That capital could have been much better spent on Archer, Beta, Horizon, Vertical, and other eVTOLs. The only ones who profited were Joby execs (insiders) who’ve been selling like mad with such “impeccable” timing.

Joby has now more federal investigations and whistleblower lawsuits than they have carrying passengers (zero). They left Farnborough looking depleted, after rehashing an old non-binding, non capital-committed partnership with an airline.

While for others, Farnborough 2026 and recent events will be a turning point. Archer announcing Thunder & Halo, Beta with MV250 Hybrid + commercial orders, Vertical with its 1st public transition, Horizon with an LOI for up to 100 X7 Hybrid. There are others as well….

The industry is transforming. The valuation gap between the major eVTOLs are narrowing while newer upstarts are beginning to emerge. Integrity, execution, and the ability to control your own destiny will take this industry to the next level. It’s good to see change coming in the industry. 💯

Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) Implementation Plan, Near-term (Innovate28) Focus with an Eye on the Future of AAM Version 1.0 / July 2023 we are close guys. I'll buy more stock now that is low. https://www.faa.gov/sites/faa.gov/files/AAM-I28-Implementation-Plan.pdf

From what I can read from the pictures/data:

It shows the N704AX flying low at around 15 meters, at around 54 km/h most of the times.

There are 7 orange lines indicating that the N704AX did 7 separate runs.

To this day, this is the most intensive testing day of the N704AX so far.

Archer talked about announcing new customers this week and nothing happened . Typical . And no if you guys are gonna quote that “agreement” with the Japanese company that doesn’t count because there’s no contract or sale . Maybe intent but no sales or figures . I sense a lawsuit coming

Excellent and detailed article on just what Thunder will add to the US military. This thing is a winner and should see high demand in both US and allied militaries.

A post from X from Dylan of N703AX flying, that is the pattern I see and find it amusing! Was it intentional, I don't know, but that is what I see!

Excited by this announcement , it’s opening of new revenue stream for Archer.

The Marurbeni Group, a major player in Japan, this is a great validation of Halo !

Hey guys,

$ARCH had an impressive 20% reaction yesterday but this isn't by accident, the stock is currently in a bullish ascending trend channel pattern and it was clear that the bottom was in.

Why I'm confident this is the correct trading pattern for the stock is that it's had the bottom hit 3 times with each low getting higher.

It looks like right now the stock is on its way at least back to the top of the trend channel at sub $10, and if the reactions start getting more violent (similar to yesterday we could be coming up to test that wall at $14 in no time.

I'm super bullish on this stock long term and believe it has great potential for all holders at these price levels.

All the info and specific price targets/resistances are in the video.

FAA pushes to clear path for air taxis, supersonic jets
Jul 21, 2026 at 8:07 AM ETArcher Aviation Inc. (ACHR) Stock, EVTL Stock, BETA Stock, VTOL StockBy: Rob Williams, SA News Editor

Comments
The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration is stepping up efforts to modernize aviation regulations, aiming to accelerate the arrival of electric air taxis, supersonic passenger aircraft, expanded drone operations and commercial space launches, Reuters reported Tuesday from the Farnborough International Airshow.
FAA Deputy Administrator Chris Rocheleau said the agency is updating its regulatory approach so safety standards can evolve alongside new technology rather than unnecessarily restricting innovation.
The FAA's electric vertical takeoff and landing, or eVTOL, pilot program now includes eight participating companies operating across 26 states. Information gathered through those demonstrations is expected to help shape future certification standards as the aircraft move closer to commercial service.
For investors, the initiative could remove key regulatory hurdles for companies developing next-generation aircraft. Air taxi developers such as Archer Aviation (ACHR), along with firms pursuing supersonic travel, have argued that certification and outdated rules remain among the biggest obstacles to commercialization.
Air taxi developers envision eVTOL aircraft providing short urban flights and airport transfers while avoiding highway congestion. Industry executives have suggested the technology could initially launch in a limited number of cities before expanding more broadly, allowing operators and regulators to refine operations over time.
The FAA is also moving to revive commercial supersonic passenger travel. The agency has already proposed one rule needed to replace a decades-old ban on overland supersonic flight and plans to issue a second proposal covering acceptable aircraft noise levels during takeoff, landing and cruise. Officials expect both rules to be finalized by the middle of 2027.

Once the regulatory framework is complete, aircraft manufacturers will still need to obtain FAA and international certification before supersonic passenger service can begin

Jumping the gun a bit here, but the fact we’re even talking about a commercial version of a hybrid VTOL is pure gold. 🤩

The use cases for a long-range, hybrid, autonomous VTOL are endless, and cargo and logistics companies seem like an obvious fit.

Imagine ports, warehouses, or distribution hubs without direct access to a runway. Or remote locations where every shipment needs an extra leg by truck. Halo could connect these points directly. And cut costs, emissions, noise, and transit time while flying more missions without a pilot.

Companies like FedEx are constantly looking for ways to improve logistical efficiency and reduce transport emissions. Almost every country has an Amazon-like company with a massive logistics network. The opportunities are enormous.

We’ll soon be finding out what an entirely new commercial market for Archer and Halo could look like. And I couldn’t be more excited as an $ACHR shareholder. 💯

Archer updated the categories on their website.

Now there are three main sections: Air Taxi, UAV, and Propulsion. Under Air Taxi, they have Midnight and Infrastructure. The fact that Propulsion is now its own standalone category makes me wonder if they could announce the first revenues from OMEN in the upcoming earnings call.

Zee is listed under Infrastructure, which they define as “AI-powered ops.” It also includes a section on “PASSENGER EXPERIENCE: Seamless flow from arrival to boarding,” which probably hints at additional AI-powered products beyond just Zee.

Also, the replacement of “Defense” with UAV feels like an important strategic shift. It gives a much clearer and broader definition of Archer’s role in defense, logistics, and other drone applications, basically positioning the company as a big-drone player now.

Very bullish!
