FlyBIS has signed a binding agreement for two Eve Air Mobility eVTOL aircraft, with purchase rights covering another 10, the companies announced November 4.
The agreement follows a letter of intent announced in 2022. FlyBIS intends to introduce the aircraft in southern Brazil, initially linking destinations in Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul.
Potential connections include Navegantes, Balneário Camboriú and Florianópolis on Santa Catarina’s coast, along with Gramado and Bento Gonçalves in Rio Grande do Sul. The companies described these as possible routes, rather than announcing a finalized operating network.
Eve and FlyBIS will also work on route planning, infrastructure and preparations for service, including how the aircraft would connect with other transportation options.
The announcement comes as Eve expands testing of its full-scale engineering prototype. According to the company, the aircraft has completed more than 70 flights, including hover and low-speed testing. Its transition campaign now includes activating the rear pusher propulsion system in flight as development progresses toward wing-borne flight.
The release does not specify aircraft prices, delivery dates or a passenger-service launch date. Ten of the potential 12 aircraft remain purchase rights, rather than firm orders.
