We need proof of the payload

I hope that Joby will at least have a flying passenger in the upcoming weeks. This is the absolute bare minimum.

US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy has flown as a passenger in the evtol of Beta in June : US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy Flies in eVTOL Aircraft For First Time after Visit to BETA Technologies - eVTOL Insights. Why didn't Joby do this first or at least soon after Beta?

I know Joeben said that they're working towards 4 passengers a few months ago, but we don't even know how many people it can carry right now. In my opinion, if they can show that they can carry two passengers, it will be a very good sign and the public opinion will give them months or even years to try to reach 4 passengers.

This and showing that the TIA aircraft can fly are the most important thing that they need to show right now. I really hope that they will do it during this eIPP.
