About the Dufour Aerospace Aero2 (drone) / Aero3 (piloted)

The Dufour Aerospace Aero2 (drone) / Aero3 (piloted) from Dufour Aerospace is a eVTOL Utility Drone / Air Taxi that forms part of the emerging advanced air mobility market of 2024-2026. Electric and hybrid-electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft like the Dufour Aerospace Aero2 (drone) / Aero3 (piloted) are designed to move people and cargo through the air with far lower noise and emissions than conventional helicopters, opening up air taxi, personal flight and roadable aircraft applications that were not previously practical. Dufour Aerospace is developing the programme with a focus on certification, safety and real-world operations rather than concept demonstrations alone.
