Andrea Pingitore piloted N545JX, which lifted straight up and flew westward over the open water with a nice steady rise. Minutes later, she\u2019d reached the far coast and swung north to take the Marin Headlands under her wing, with the entire San Francisco cityscape visible behind her.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-238287\"\/><br \/><iframe title=\"Joby Aviation&#039;s Electric Skies Tour: San Francisco Bay\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UHmBjWxO9aI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><noscript><iframe title=\"Joby Aviation&#039;s Electric Skies Tour: San Francisco Bay\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UHmBjWxO9aI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript><br \/>The entire journey was silent as a mouse because no noisy engines were belching out there; the electric motors simply hummed along as the air taxi passed by the Golden Gate Bridge and completed its loop. That was the polar opposite of how things usually are, with all of those gridlocked bridges and freeways below that keep drivers stranded for hours on end, week after week. Joby created this baby to trim the annoying bits down to size, transforming a long drive into a brief breath of fresh air.<\/p>\n<div class=\"aawp\">\n<div class=\"aawp-product aawp-product--horizontal\" data-aawp-product-asin=\"B07FTPX71F\" data-aawp-product-id=\"223485\" data-aawp-tracking-id=\"tec02e-20\" data-aawp-product-title=\"DJI Neo Mini Drone with 4K UHD Camera for Adults 135g Self Flying Drone that Follows You Palm Takeoff Subject Tracking QuickShots Stabilized Video Built-In Propeller Guard  Controller-Free\">\n<div class=\"aawp-product__thumb\">\n<p>            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aawp-product__image\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/31k5Q8WvBzL._SL160_.jpg\" alt=\"DJI Neo, Mini Drone with 4K UHD Camera for Adults, 135g Self Flying Drone that Follows You, Palm Takeoff...\"\/><\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"aawp-product__content\">\n<p>            DJI Neo, Mini Drone with 4K UHD Camera for Adults, 135g Self Flying Drone that Follows You, Palm Takeoff&#8230;        <\/p>\n<div class=\"aawp-product__description\">\n<ul>\n<li> Due to platform compatibility issue, the DJI Fly app has been removed from Google Play.

Every system on board is designed to achieve three goals: keeping passengers safe, reducing noise for those on the ground, and providing results. Boy, did that show during the bay crossing, as the craft moved like clockwork even as it passed right past one of the world\u2019s most iconic sights.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techeblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/21173946\/joby-pilotless-air-taxi-test-san-francisco-2.jpg\" alt=\"Joby Pilotless Air Taxi Test San Francisco Bay\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"\/><br \/>The 2026 Electric Skies Tour began, and this identical aircraft will visit cities around the country around the time of the nation\u2019s 250th birthday celebration. Joby wants to give more people the opportunity to see the device up close and get a feel of what it could accomplish for their daily lives without requiring extensive new infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techeblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/21173951\/joby-pilotless-air-taxi-test-san-francisco-3.jpg\" alt=\"Joby Pilotless Air Taxi Test San Francisco Bay\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"\/><br \/>Regulatory progress is also backing them up. They\u2019ve been selected to participate in a White House-backed program that allows them to get started early in ten states, ranging from Arizona to Utah. They could start flying sooner rather than later, after all of the agreements are in place and the remaining certifications are completed. Joby has already flown an airplane that meets all federal regulations, preparing for some proper test flights with authorities before the end of 2026.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techeblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/21173957\/joby-pilotless-air-taxi-test-san-francisco-4.jpg\" alt=\"Joby Pilotless Air Taxi Test San Francisco Bay\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"\/><br \/>Meanwhile, manufacturing is ramping up, with a new 700,000 square foot factory being built in Dayton, Ohio, which will eventually produce hundreds of vehicles each year, and they already have some extended locations in California lined up. Production targets state that they intend to reach four aircraft per month by 2027, as the entire network begins to come together.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><!-- \u603b\u5bb9\u5668\uff1a\u6700\u5927\u5bbd908px Grid\u7d27\u51d1\u5e03\u5c40 -->\r\n<div style=\"display: grid;
