特別買収目的会社との合併を通じて公開企業となることを最近発表した電動航空機スタートアップのArcher Aviation（アーチャー・アビエーション）は、2024年までにロサンゼルスで都市航空タクシーのネットワーク立ち上げを計画している。
今回の発表は、ロサンゼルス市長であるEric Garcetti（エリック・ガーセッティ）氏のオフィス、ロサンゼルス市交通局、そしてUrban Movement Labの3者が、都市型航空機を既存の交通網や土地利用政策に統合する方法についての計画を策定するための1年計画である「Urban Air Mobility Partnership」の結成から2カ月後に行われたものだ。2019年11月に立ち上げられたUrban Movement Labsは交通テクノロジーの開発・テスト・展開を目的とする地元政府と企業による官民連携の組織だ。Urban Movement Labsとロサンゼルス市は、人々が「Urban Air Mobility（UAM、アーバン・エア・モビリティ）」航空機に搭乗できる「垂直離着陸飛行場」の設計とアクセスに取り組んでいる。UAMとは、都市や郊外で乗客や貨物を低高度で運ぶことができる高度にかなり自動化された航空機を指す。
Archer Aviationは2週間前に、特別買収目的会社との合併を通じて公開企業となるという発表の中でUnited Airlines（ユナイテッド航空）が顧客、そして投資家となったことを明らかにした。Archer Aviationは2021年2月初めに特別買収目的会社のAtlas Crest Investment Corp.と合併することで合意に達した。この手法はスタートアップが従来のIPOプロセスを回避することを可能にしている最近頻繁に取られているものだ。ニューヨーク証券取引所にティッカーシンボル「ACHR」で上場する合併会社の評価額は、38億ドル（約4008億円）となる。

ロサンゼルスに主要ハブを置くユナイテッド航空はこの取引の主要投資家の1社だ。合意条件に基づき、同航空は10億ドル（約1055億円）相当の航空機を発注した。5億ドル（約527億円）分の航空機を追加購入するオプションも持っている。
「初のeVTOL（電動垂直離着陸機）をユナイテッド航空のハブの1つで立ち上げるというArcherの約束は、当社の顧客が旅行のあらゆるステージで、座席に座る前から二酸化炭素排出を抑制することに1歩近づいたことを意味します」とユナイテッド航空の経営企画・投資関係担当副社長のMichael Leskinen（マイケル・レスキネン）氏は声明で述べた。「Archerにとってロサンゼルスは始まりにすぎないと確信していて、我々のハブ全体へと拡大するのをサポートすることを楽しみにしています」。
Archerが乗客をシャトル輸送するようになるまで、道のりは長い。同社はフル充電すれば時速150マイル（約241km）で60マイル（約96km）飛行するようデザインされているeVTOLをまだ大量生産していない。同社は以前、フルスケールのeVTOLを2021年後半に披露し、2023年の大量生産開始を目指している、と述べた。
垂直離着陸飛行場ハブのデザインと構築は、今後3年間で終えなければならない数多くのタスクの1つだ。同社の共同創業者で共同CEOのBrett Adcock（ブレット・アドコック）氏とAdam Goldstein（アダム・ゴールドステイン）氏は、短期的にはヘリパッドや駐車場のような既存インフラを使うのに前向きだ。同社によると、「Maker」という名のeVTOLは既存インフラに収まるサイズとなる。Urban Air Mobility Partnershipが仮にその戦略に同意するとして、そうしたフレキシビリティはArcherが2024年という目標を達成するのに貢献するかもしれない。

Archer Aviation, the electric aircraft startup that recently announced a deal to go public via a merger with a blank-check company, plans to launch a network of its urban air taxis in Los Angeles by 2024.
The announcement comes two months after the formation of the Urban Air Mobility Partnership, a one-year initiative between Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti’s office, the Los Angeles Department of Transportation and Urban Movement Labs to develop a plan for how to integrate urban aircraft into existing transportation networks and land use policies. Urban Movement Labs, launched in November 2019, is a public-private partnership involving local government and companies to develop, test and deploy transportation technologies. Urban Movement Labs and the city of Los Angeles are working on the design and access of “vertiports,” where people can go to fly on an “urban air mobility” aircraft. Urban air mobility, or UAM, is industry-speak for a highly automated aircraft that can operate and transport passengers or cargo at lower altitudes within urban and suburban areas.
Archer Aviation’s announcement comes two weeks since it landed United Airlines as a customer and an investor in its bid to become a publicly traded company via a merger with a special purpose acquisition company. Archer Aviation reached an agreement in early February to merge with special purpose acquisition company Atlas Crest Investment Corp., an increasingly common financial path that allows the startup to eschew the once traditional IPO process. The combined company, which will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange with ticker symbol “ACHR,” will have an equity valuation of $3.8 billion.
United Airlines, which has a major hub in Los Angeles, was one of the investors in the deal. Under the terms of its agreement, United placed an order for $1 billion of Archer’s aircraft. United has the option to buy an additional $500 million of aircraft.
“Archer’s commitment to launch their first eVTOL aircraft in one of United’s hubs means our customers are another step closer to reducing their carbon footprint at every stage of their journey, before they even take their seat,” Michael Leskinen, vice president of corporate development and investor relations at United Airlines, said in a statement. “We’re confident that Los Angeles is only the beginning for Archer and we look forward to helping them extend their reach across all of our Hubs.”
Archer has a ways to go before it’s ready to shuttle passengers. The company has yet to mass produce its electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft, which is designed to travel up to 60 miles on a single charge at speeds of 150 miles per hour. The company previously said it plans to unveil its full-scale eVTOL later this year and is aiming to begin volume manufacturing in 2023.
Designing and building a hub of vertiports is among the numerous tasks that must be completed in the next three years. Brett Adcock and Adam Goldstein, the company’s co-founders and co-CEOs, have said they’re open to using existing infrastructure such as helipads and parking garages in the short term. Their eVTOL, known as “Maker,” is built to fit within the size of the existing infrastructure, according to the company. That flexibility, assuming the Urban Air Mobility Partnership agrees with the strategy, could help Archer meet its 2024 deadline.

Hyundai Motor Group (the Group) announced today the appointment of Ben Diachun as the chief technology officer of its Urban Air Mobility Division (the Division), effective immediately. Diachun will report to Jaiwon Shin, President at Hyundai Motor Group and Head of Urban Air Mobility Division and will develop the Division's technology strategy and vision with the goal of bringing Hyundai's urban air mobility (UAM) to market by 2028. "We are excited to welcome Ben to Hyundai Motor Group as chief technology officer of our Urban Air Mobility Division," President Shin said. "His track record of building groundbreaking aircrafts as well as agile, collaborative and diverse teams is critical to our mission to develop the best and most innovative design for our UAM vehicle." Diachun will work closely with other members of the Division leadership team to ensure the UAM industry ― from the technology to the surrounding policy, infrastructure and operations ― is inclusive, accessible and seamlessly integrated in existing mobility infrastructure and across a broad range of communities. "I have been fascinated by technology and air travel since I was a child and am thrilled to put my experience to work at the Urban Air Mobility Division," Diachun said. "With an incredibly talented team and the manufacturing expertise of Hyundai Motor Group, we are well positioned to transform the human travel experience. I am honored to join this group and am excited for what we will accomplish together." Diachun brings 20 years of engineering and executive leadership experience to the Division. Most recently, he served as CEO and president at Opener, an aerospace startup in Palo Alto, California. He was also the president at Scaled Composites, LLC, an aerospace manufacturing company known for creating revolutionary new aircraft and spacecraft, in Mojave, California. At Scaled Composites, Diachun also held senior-level technology roles prior to becoming president. Over the course of his career, Diachun helped develop 16 groundbreaking aerospace vehicles, including SpaceShipOne, the first commercial manned spaceship, and BlackFly, an electric personal air vehicle. Diachun earned a master's degree in aeronautics and astronautics from Stanford University and a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from Purdue University. He serves on the Board of Directors for the Experimental Aircraft Association and is an industry advisor to Purdue University's School of Aeronautics and Astronautics. SOURCE: Hyundai Source link
