23 August 2019: Quantum Air has signed a purchase deposit agreement for 22 of its all-electric four-seat eFlyer 4s and 2 two-seat eFlyer 2 airplanes from Bye Aerospace.
The company has also signed a comprehensive agreement that consists of two future advanced aircraft under development from Bye Aerospace.
George E. Bye, CEO of Bye Aerospace said, "One of Quantum Air's goals is to disrupt aviation, providing more accessible, cost-efficient, high speed air transportation solutions - including FAA Part 135 on-demand air taxi travel- to help alleviate the noise and CO2 emissions challenges that accompany traditional internal combustion aircraft."
Quantum's new fleet of eFlyers cements its status as the first and leading air taxi service in Los Angeles. "With the arrival of electric aircraft, we are entering a new Golden Age in aviation," said Tony Thompson, Quantum CEO. "Since the dawn of flight, point to point air travel has been a luxury available only to a privileged few. Quantum's groundbreaking air taxi service will finally make point to point air travel widely available."
