📸 A few snapshots from another successful flight test the other week. Great work, team! We learn by doing, and each flight keeps us moving forward.
A group of people wearing safety vests are gathered around a yellow aircraft on a runway under a cloudy sky. The tail number N607WA is visible, along with the "Wisk" logo on the tail. Hills can be seen in the background.

A large yellow aircraft, resembling a drone, is on the tarmac. Two individuals wearing high-visibility vests are walking towards it. The scene has a cloudy sky and distant mountains. The name "Wisk Aero" is visible on the aircraft.

We tested our Gen 6 autonomy system with the @FAANews William J. Hughes Tech Center & @skygridai, connecting our Autonomy Lab to the NAS "digital twin" to simulate complex Houston airspace, active ATC, & weather. Learn more in our blog: wisk.aero/newsroom/unlocking…

The most critical test data comes from off-nominal scenarios. In our simulation with NASA Ames, we evaluated lost C2 links, traffic conflicts, and weather diversions across 1:1 and 1:many supervision modes. #Simulation #NASA #Autonomy

Pedal turn expansion testing in action. 🔄 During this flight, the team conducted pedal turns at increasing rotational speeds to evaluate the aircraft’s precise, controlled turns. The sequence concluded with a Land Now command, initiating our rapid descent mode.

Breaking ground at Hollister Municipal Airport! 🚁✨ One of the first public airport vertiports in the U.S. built for piloted and autonomous ops, this 100x100-ft site lets us test terminal procedures, precision landing, and GPS-denied conditions. wisk.aero/newsroom/wisk-brea…

Every flight gives us more to learn. With two Gen 6 aircraft actively flying, our team is continuing to expand the flight envelope, validate aircraft performance, and turn real-world flight data into the next round of testing.

🚀 Step inside our joint simulation with @NASAAmes. Working with NASA controllers, our team demonstrated how a single ground supervisor can manage three autonomous aircraft simultaneously in complex airspace—keeping workload and communication within safe limits.

Safe autonomous flight takes a smart aircraft and a smart airspace. 🛫 🌐 We’re building the world's first self-flying passenger eVTOL, while @skygridai powers the traffic management system to safely integrate it into global airspace.

One flight. Endless simulations. ✈️🔄 Testing our autonomous systems isn't just about putting aircraft in the sky. It's also about what we do with the data afterward. #CloudComputing #AAM #AutonomousFlight #Simulation
