Wisk is a leading Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) company and developer of the first all-electric, autonomous, passenger-carrying air taxi in the U.S. In 2010, our team set out to explore the possibilities of electric, vertical takeoff and landing flight. Since then, we have developed multiple generations of aircraft and conducted more than 1750+ test flights. In 2023, Wisk became a fully-owned subsidiary of Boeing. While we operate separately, this relationship allows us to tap into Boeing’s development, testing, and certification expertise, and more. Headquartered in Mountain View, CA with locations around the world, our vision of delivering safe, everyday flight for everyone is closer than ever to becoming reality.

?? A few of our favorite moments from Avalon Australian International Airshow at stand #4M17.?Come by our booth to talk about #AAM and how our aircraft will transform the future of travel. Thanks to Catherine MacGowan, Dan Parsons, and Cynthia Comer for representing Wisk on stage and sharing their insights! #Wisk | #eVTOL | #Gen6 | #Avalon2025
?? Meet Simon Ang Li, a Senior Controls Engineer at Wisk who plays a?key role in developing the systems that ensure our #Gen6 aircraft fly safely and autonomously. Simon leads the subscale aircraft program – a flying testbed that lets his team validate flight software in real-world conditions and gain insights that aren’t possible in simulation alone. Before joining Wisk in 2019, Simon studied Aeronautics and Astronautics at Stanford, where his advisor was one of the founding members of the company that would eventually become Wisk. Simon also has a private pilot's?license, bringing both technical expertise and a lifelong passion for aviation to his work. #EmployeeSpotlight | #ControlsEngineer | #AAM
?? "We embrace the opportunity to be the leader in Texas, and we want to create a trail that everyone else can follow" - Houston?Airport?System. Wisk is proud to be at the forefront of the Advanced Air Mobility movement, collaborating with airports, cities, and government leaders to pave the way for autonomous air taxis in Texas. This isn't just about technology; it's about unlocking new economic opportunities, creating jobs, and improving connectivity across this great state. ?? Together, we're building the next golden age of transportation. #TexasAAM | #TransportationInnovation | #Autonomousflight | #AirTaxis
Congratulations to Wisk's CTO Jim Tighe for winning the Vertical Flight Society Paul E. Haueter Award! ?? Once a year, this award is given for outstanding technical contribution to the field of #VTOL aircraft development. Jim's leadership and technical expertise - from aerodynamic and structural analyses to the development of motors and avionics systems - has not only guided Wisk's generation of eVTOL aircraft, but has helped advance the field of vertical flight. Congrats Jim! https://lnkd.in/gC8EUw4n #VFS | #AviationAwards | #AircraftDevelopment
Australia has a history of aviation innovation and its environment presents a distinct opportunity for Advanced Air Mobility (AAM). As a strategic market for Wisk, we’ve released a paper that outlines our vision for integrating #AAM operations into Australia’s transportation ecosystem. ?? Read more about our approach to autonomy, regulatory and community collaborations, airspace integration, and more. ?? https://lnkd.in/gR5aHrMN #Australia | #Transportation | #AviationInnovation
Australia, here we come! ???? Wisk is heading to the Avalon Australian International Airshow and we’re bringing autonomous flight with us.

?? At Wisk, every day is test day. Using helicopters as surrogate aircraft, we’re refining key autonomy technology like hazard avoidance, navigation, and contingency management—ensuring our systems are safe, reliable, and ready for flight. This same technology is what will safely fly our passengers in our Gen 6 air taxi. ?? See how we’re putting our autonomy technology to the test in the video below, and read more in eVTOL Insights:https://lnkd.in/eT9Qan2C #Autonomy #eVTOL #AviationInnovation #WiskAero
Texas, we loved bringing Gen 6 to you!??? Over 100 government and infrastructure leaders joined us this week to celebrate Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) in the State of Texas. We talked about how AAM and Air Taxis can unlock incredible opportunities for Texas – think new jobs,?faster transportation, and a stronger economy. A special thanks to Senator Tan Parker and Representative David L. Cook for their support and leadership proposing #AAM legislation that will help?Texas continue leading in?aviation for decades to come. We also had the opportunity to?welcome talented The University of Texas at Austin aerospace engineering students for a visit with the?aircraft and our Houston VR Flight Experience. Their enthusiasm for autonomous flight was contagious!??? Huge thank you to our partners?at Boeing, SkyGrid, City of Sugar Land, TX, Houston?Airport?System, Port San Antonio, and the North Central Texas Council of Governments for making this week such a success.

"We're building highways in the sky for an aircraft that's never been built or certified before." -Cash Castillo, Wisk's Airspace Integration Senior Manager. Cash plays a crucial role in integrating our Gen 6 aircraft into the broader airspace system. He focuses on designing procedures that align with regulatory requirements, ensuring our autonomous aircraft operate safely alongside existing traffic. Before Wisk, Cash worked at the Pentagon, managing a portfolio of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) for the Department of Defense, from small to large drones. His passion for autonomy and Advanced Air Mobility drew him to Wisk. #EmployeeSpotlight | #AAM | #AirspaceIntegration | #Gen6
Michael Ceriello, an Aerodynamic Engineer at Wisk, caught up with Howard Hardee to talk about the work we do at the Boeing V/STOL Wind Tunnel (BVWT) in Philadelphia. ?? In the tunnel, a subscale Wisk aircraft is put through various aerodynamic tests, all powered by a 39ft fan. The data we collect here feeds directly into the design of our Gen 6 aircraft and our simulation models.
