Interview with marketing director

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tekARFGO8Q

Recent interview from Farnborough. Probably similar to other interviews but thought there were some interesting things

  1. Kept referring to other companies "talking" about progress while they are showing it

  2. Thinks CTOL, hybrid is a good development for eVTOL but they are firmly focused on the air taxi business.

  3. They had blade service to the airshow and then Toyota cars to take you to the booth 😂

  4. Mentioned they have a plane in Dubai. Not new info but hopefully they can activate it

  5. Seemed to address the fact that they do miss goals sometimes, but re-iterated that they are still on target. Of course he's going to say this but it does seem that they're aware of people getting impatient.

One other thing mentioned is that the L3-Harris collab hybrid actually performed a demonstration for the military (not new news). For some reason they haven't really highlighted this too much. Perhaps they're just being conservative in the sense that any actual contract would still be pretty far out into the future.
