Jet Set Go! CEO’s Wild Electric Air Taxi Dream Gets Real (Video)

Founder and CEO of Beta Technologies, Kyle Clark, sits down with William Zimmerman to discuss electric-fueled flights. Clark shares, “This is a summation of my entire life’s work. This was my senior thesis in college over 25 years ago… We’re here flying real people into a big airport. We’ve still got a little ways to go in getting to full commercial service, but this was a massive step.”

Clark explains how unlocking low-cost flights through harnessing electric fuel will help people move differently in their lives: “From my perspective, it’s a huge unlock to actually fly from airport to airport at drastically lower cost. And then you add that lower cost to get to vertiports, helipads—really turn anything into a landing zone.”
