Eve 100

MELBOURNE, Fla. – October 31, 2026 -- Eve Air Mobility (NYSE: EVEX, EVEXW; B3: EVEB31) said its engineering eVTOL prototype completed a first partial transition flight, activating the rear pusher propeller in the air for the first time and reaching a maximum ground speed of 30 knots.

Prototype holds 27 knots with pusher spinning at up to 1,200 RPM

The aircraft attained a stabilized speed of 27 knots while the pusher ran at up to 1,200 RPM. The flight lasted 3 minutes and 9 seconds, covered approximately 0.84 nautical miles and peaked at 90 feet above ground level.

The pusher activation marks the start of the transition phase, in which the aircraft shifts from vertical lift to wing-borne flight. Eve describes this phase as one of the most critical aspects of eVTOL flight.

FARNBOROUGH – – October 31, 2026 -- Eve Air Mobility has applied to the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) to start Type Certificate validation for its Eve 100 eVTOL aircraft, adding a third aviation authority to the program. On the same day, Brazil's National Civil Aviation Agency (ANAC) opened a sectoral consultation on updated airworthiness criteria for the aircraft.

ANAC accepts industry comments on revised Eve 100 criteria until August 18

The updated criteria follow ANAC's first airworthiness criteria for the Eve 100, published in November 2024. The revisions aim to harmonize further with international certification approaches, including FAA guidance for powered-lift aircraft. After the consultation closes on August 18, ANAC will review the comments and assess possible refinements.

Farnborough – October 31, 2026 -- Brazil's National Civil Aviation Agency (ANAC) has published proposed noise certification criteria for Eve Air Mobility's Eve 100 eVTOL aircraft, with public consultation open until August 8. Eve (NYSE: EVEX) calls the publication a key milestone toward type certification and toward an environmental certification framework for eVTOLs.

ANAC adapts existing aviation noise rules to the Eve 100

The criteria follow extensive engagement between Eve and ANAC. They draw on existing aviation noise regulations and adapt them to the Eve 100 and its planned operations. They are meant to evaluate the aircraft's acoustic characteristics across all phases of flight, giving regulators an environmental profile before commercial operations begin.
