“We’ve got a winner.” James “Buddy” Denham steps into Lead Demonstration Flight Test Pilot and hands the Chief Test Pilot helm to Zach Reeder at $JOBY. Congrats to both.

I track $JOBY and eVTOLs PRECISELY because it challenges this dim view in general aviation: that innovation will slow down. that over regulation will delay progress. that hydrogen is too far off. Not on Joby’s watch!
✈️ @WizzAir CEO József Váradi is predicting that the pace of aviation technology innovation will “dramatically slow down,” and is urging aircraft and engine manufacturers to prioritize durability and reliability. aviationweek.com/air-transpo… #RoutesWorld #WizzAir

eVTOL community beat reporter on the scene in Utah. And you thought all the action was in Florida this week! Can’t wait to see the updates from @tb_travis and learn what $JOBY ‘s @bonnysimi has to share.
Let’s Talk $JOBY live now at Zero Gravity Summit, thanks @47G_Utah! $JOBY President of Operations @BonnySimi speaking this morning💪 Entrepreneur and TeamUSA Legend @ShaunWhite speaking this afternoon💪

Ok Florida you’ve got next. Love the special $JOBY livery update for the sunshine state 🌞 @MyFDOT deserves praise for how leaned in they are to this new eVTOL mode of transport.
Photos of Joby S4 N545JX outside of SunTrax Hangar 2, this morning. The Joby crews were working hard. Sadly, the weather took a turn and JULIET XRAY had to return home. She's gorgeous. The last photo of N545JX returning to the hangar is my favorite (you can spot her props) -- FDOT is full speed at delivering this AAM expansion. Short video in replies.

Congrats to $BETA and @FAANews for this eVTOL milestone. I love the quality of thought and promotion behind these short clips. Really helps engage and educate the public. Can’t wait to see similar $JOBY and $ACHR pieces when appropriate.
🚨NEW: @FAANews has granted a first of its kind certification for eVTOLs @BETA_aircraft is officially CLEARED to fly potential customers in their aircrafts Under @POTUS, we are unleashing innovation and bringing incredible upgrades to the American people 🇺🇸

A new @FAANews draft vertiport guidance puts footprint in focus. $JOBY may have a space advantage: a 125-ft circle uses 18% more area than a 115-ft circle. Illustrative scenarios not approved requirements. Rotor envelopes, downwash & site limits matter.

Let's Talk $JOBY AMA #1 in the books! Thanks for everyone's questions and tuning in 💪 Spoiler Alert 👀 I also quietly unveiled something I've been working on for a while... Can't wait to share my LTJ Research Portal more on the next stream! 😎
📣 Let's Talk Joby AMA Today 💬 Differing opinions welcome 🤝✌️ $JOBY $BETA $ACHR $EVTL $HOVR youtube.com/live/JwqKXyqym8U LTJ Fun Fact! My focus on AAM goes much further than social media. Beyond the 1000s of research hours over the last 7 years, I worked at @flyBLADEnow from 2019-2022, working on air taxi ops around the 🇺🇸, MediMobility (now $SRTA), as well as Infrastructure development.

Dubai $JOBY Air Taxi Promo Alert. Love the framing of Dubai as “a city that moves in three dimensions” Hope more cities steal that tagline - and bring forward a safer future faster.
“تخيلوا دبي المستقبل، مدينة تتحرك في ثلاث أبعاد”. يستعرض معالي مطر الطاير، المدير العام ورئيس مجلس المديرين في #هيئة_الطرق_و_المواصلات، الرؤية المستقبلية للتنقل في دبي. منظومة مبتكرة تشمل رحلات جوية تختصر وقت الوصول إلى دقائق معدودة، وشبكات نقل متكاملة تحت الأرض، ومساحات خضراء على سطح المدينة لتعزيز جودة الحياة والتفاعل الاجتماعي. تحول استثنائي يعيد تعريف المساحة لخلق فرص استثمارية جديدة وضمان حركة أكثر استدامة وكفاءة.

Hiding in “plane” sight 👀 $JOBY’s autonomous aircraft in Louisville. $UPS tails behind it. Could cargo be Joby’s first big autonomy market?

Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport (SDF) houses UPS Worldport, the center of UPS’s global air network: 5.2 million square feet of sorting facilities, connecting a network serving 220 countries and territories. The airport handled nearly 7.5 billion pounds of cargo, freight and mail in 2025.

eIPP Hot Take 1️⃣ Don’t shoot the messenger 2️⃣ I have massive respect for $BETA Listen to Beta’s loud pusher motor at the end of the clip - huge miss to be electric BUT noisy flying on the wing.
Forever First in Flight! We welcomed @nc_governor, @NCDOT Secretary Daniel Johnson and several healthcare and aviation leaders for air demonstrations, networking, and an aircraft simulator! @jobyaviation @BETA_aircraft @UNC_Health_Care @ECUHealthNC @WakeMed

eVTOL Defense Applications Curious? Nobody covers and deep dives $JOBY Defense better than @tb_travis (thank you for your eVTOL service). 12 mins of viewing to save hours of research.
$JOBY: The S4-T didn't happen overnight, it's the payoff after a decade partnering w/ multiple branches of the US military, beginning with a 2016 DIU contract 🇺🇸💪 Since 2023, the Air Force has flown Joby's all-electric S4 eVTOLs at Edwards AFB! Now, Joby & @L3HarrisTech have built that airframe into the formidable S4-T, a scout VTOL the military doesn't have yet. It's a gas turbine hybrid, engineered for contested logistics, counter-UAS, and electronic warfare. 👀 What most people are missing...if the S4-T lands a @DeptofWar contract in the next few quarters, that means scaling up the $JOBY S4 air taxi production may happen even faster! My initial S4-T Deep Dive ⬇️ youtu.be/uVz1ZjjB2zg

“If we’re going to lead the world globally we have to set our innovators free.” @SecDuffy gets it. $JOBY does it. The world needs it. The 🇺🇸 is cooking!
Texas, you are electric ⚡️ One week of eIPP demonstration flights and the team that made them happen. Thank you @txdot for inviting us to show what quiet, vertical takeoff makes possible...this is just the beginning.
