The Experience

What does a flying taxi
in Edinburgh feel like?

Not a helicopter. Not a plane. Something entirely new.

The first thing you notice is the silence. Unlike a helicopter, an eVTOL aircraft uses multiple small electric motors distributed across the airframe — each one quiet on its own, and together producing a low hum rather than a roar.

You board at a vertiport — a purpose-built terminal on a rooftop, bridge deck, or dedicated pad. Check-in takes minutes. There are no security queues. You walk to the aircraft, fasten your seatbelt, and within moments you're climbing vertically above Edinburgh.

At cruise altitude — typically 500–1,500 feet — the city transforms. Traffic jams become irrelevant. A journey that takes 45 minutes by road takes 8 minutes in the air. The views on descent are, by all accounts, extraordinary.
