Boeing and Airbus are the largest companies in this flying field.

Among them, Boeing has created a private taxi in the sky.

They have products that are producible, and now they have come to the extent of promoting and selling

This prototype, powered by an electric battery, can travel about 50 miles (about 80 km).

This first flight test was conducted mainly for vertical takeoff and landing. Boeing said it would be a test to convert from vertical flight to forward flight in the future.

It shows that Boeing is serious about mobility in urban areas.

Eric Bartsch, chief operating officer (COO) of VerdeGo Aero, developing eVTOL's power system, has made progress in new technology with the development of autonomous technology, electric propulsion and unmanned aerial vehicles.

We have materials for other generations of aircraft that could not have been realized ten years ago.

People will go back to the golden age of innovation to try new things.

After the flight, Boeing subsidiary Aurora Flight Sciences is partnered with Uber Elevate, Uber's flight network. Uber plans to commercialize an air taxi by 2023. Boeing aims at early 2020.

However, self-driving vehicle placement can take a long time. This technology is still evolving, and there are still many unsafe aspects.
