Gol and flying taxis in Brazil
As an alternative to relieve traffic in the main capitals of the country, flying taxis are the most new airline investment, such as Gol. This service is not new at all, as there are already companies that rent helicopters to big businessmen on a daily basis.
The airline Gol, together with the British company Vertical Aerospace, intends to streamline its operations and deliver an entire air taxi company by 2030 throughout the country.
This new project represents something important for the country, after all, having Brazilian companies actively participate in the project makes Brazil more visible in the world market.
What will flying taxis look like?
O VX4 is the flying taxi model chosen for the Brazilian sky. It can reach around 320 km/h and have a range to fly long distances of up to 160 kilometers. In addition, they are super silent and promise to offer a low cost.
According to Dómhnal Slattery, CEO of Avolon, the objective is to innovate the Brazilian sky with aircraft modern and with zero emission of polluting gases, as they have as a pillar of their ships the sustainability. Furthermore, it is, in a way, a way of organizing the chaos of cities.
The only issue is that only a select public can have access to this type of transport. Will we be able to dream of public flying taxis one day?
