119 years ago this week, after 4 years of experimentation, the #WrightBrothers embarked on the world's first successful airplane flight.
A throwback to one of our favorite moments from '21 when #aviation past & future converged at @AerospaceFuture conference in @museumofflight:
Join us for a celebration of South Sound manufacturing innovation at RIFT Carbon Campers HQ!
We'll unveil a new carbon curing oven that drives manufacturing efficiencies for lightweight & aerodynamic composite structures like ZEVA aircraft & RIFT's teardrop campers.

🟰 The birth of @ZEVAaero 💡
@StephenTibbitts shares ZEVA's past & present vision for #airmobility on @eVTOLInsights pod: https://t.co/wVymhwOqQY
For #firstresponders, getting a medic on-scene faster can mean the difference between life & death. ZEVA’s aircraft will transition from hover mode to forward flight mode & cruise at 160mph for rapid #emergencyresponse. ZEVA’s vision for 1st responders➡️https://t.co/6vhfjFK2fP
By 2050, 68% of the world’s population—6.3B people—are projected to live in metro areas. It’s time to open up the 3rd dimension for short-range travel: #AdvancedAirMobility.
#eVTOL#UAM#AAM
Thank you @RepDerekKilmer for stopping by to see @ZEVAAero’s exciting progress & explore the future of #eVTOL & advanced #airmobility in our region. We're so fortunate to have leaders like you who value the importance of advocating for #innovation & #startups.
#AAM#UAM
There are incredible innovators and entrepreneurs across our region - including the team at ZEVA, a Tacoma-based startup focusing on zero-emission electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft transportation. Great to stop by to meet the team and learn more about their mission!
Let’s reinvent the day trip. Personal electric #aircraft will take your weekend adventures to an entirely new (& sustainable!) level.

#evtol#vtol#avgeek#ElectricVehicles
The next chapter for #airmobility is being written today. We’ll continue to push toward achieving what those in #aviation history could only dream of—and transform modern transportation as we know it.
#eVTOL#evgeek
The future of #transportation is aerial. Analysts predict incredible growth for this industry in the next 10-20 years—expecting the market to exceed $1.5T globally by 2040.

[1/3] @McKinsey’s 2022 #advancedairmobility report states (and we agree): In order to realize the true potential of #AAM, collaboration—& strategic action—across the industry is crucial.
Exciting start to the week! @RepRickLarsen stopped by to learn more about ZEVA's #eVTOL technology & vision for transforming point-to-point air travel. We're grateful for Rep. Larsen’s leadership & commitment to enabling a bright, sustainable future for #aviation in our region.
What an honor to welcome @RepRickLarsen to ZEVA’s headquarters yesterday to see our aircraft up close & learn more about @ZEVAAero’s vision & exciting trajectory. I appreciated discussing the future of #eVTOL in our region with a fellow champion for #aviation!
As more companies return to in-office & hybrid work & traffic reaches pre-pandemic levels, many seek a more sustainable alternative for themselves & the planet. We in the #AirMobility space are working to ensure that ground transport won’t be commuters’ only option for long.
We humans have become addicted to energy — but increased traction in the #electricvehicle market shows promise for the future of #energy consumption.
