UAE adds another flying taxi: US-based firm partners with Abu Dhabi for latest test flight success
Abu Dhabi completes its first successful flying taxi test at Al Bateen Executive Airport, paving the way for commercial launch in early 2026/Image credits: WAM Abu Dhabi has taken a major step toward futuristic transportation by successfully completing the first test flight of a flying taxi at Al Bateen Executive Airport. The flight was conducted by US-based Archer Aviation in partnership with the Abu Dhabi Investment Office (Adio), marking a milestone ahead of the planned commercial launch of air taxi services in early 2026. According to Omran Malek, Head of Autonomous Mobility and Robotics at Adio, the test flight is the first in a series of structured evaluations aimed at launching not just a flying taxi service, but a full-fledged aviation ecosystem. Speaking to local news outlet Khaleej Times, Omran Malek said, 'We don't just test to test, but test to commercialise. We're not just launching an air taxi service, we're building an ecosystem around us , from pilot training to MROs, to talent development, to manufacturing with Archer Aviation, with the facility in Al Ain.' The project also involves collaborations with universities to develop specialised curricula and short diplomas to prepare a skilled workforce for the sector. Testing Under UAE Conditions The testing phase will continue through the summer months to evaluate how the aircraft performs under Abu Dhabi's hot and dusty climate. 'Then we'll bring this aircraft to fly over the city and move into the commercial phase in early 2026,' Malek said. Dr Talib Alhinai, UAE Manager at Archer Aviation, said that the aircraft used in this phase was not piloted, as the goal is to test environmental readiness. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like One plan.

Our initial flight test operations in the UAE are focused specifically on evaluating the aircraft's performance in high temperature, humidity, and dust,' he noted. Roadmap to Commercial Launch and Manufacturing Once testing is complete, Archer plans to launch a small fleet of air taxis in Abu Dhabi. Key priorities for the launch include: Safe commercial operations Fully developed vertiports Airspace integration 'All that is the priority for us to launch in Abu Dhabi,' said Malek. Looking further ahead, the manufacturing of the aircraft is scheduled to begin in Al Ain in 2027, with future exports planned to other interested countries across the region. A New Mode of Daily Travel Contrary to the belief that flying taxis will be exclusive to luxury travellers, Malek said pricing in Abu Dhabi will be designed to be feasible for the general public. 'As we introduce more vertiports and aircraft, that price will scale down so that it can be used on a daily basis,' he said. The announcement comes shortly after a similar successful test flight by Joby Aviation in Dubai, showing strong momentum in the UAE's push to lead urban air mobility in the region. Dubai's First Flying Taxi Test Flight Just this week, Dubai marked a key milestone in urban mobility with the first test flight of a flying taxi developed by Joby Aviation. The test took place at Joby's test facility at the Dubai Jetman Helipad in Margham, located along the Dubai–Al Ain Road. Dubai is now preparing for a commercial rollout by the first half of 2026, aiming to provide residents and visitors a premium air mobility service. The UAE is leading the way in futuristic transportation, with both Abu Dhabi and Dubai successfully conducting test flights for flying taxis. These milestones reflect the country's commitment to redefining urban mobility, with significant investment in advanced technologies. By embracing innovative transport solutions, the UAE is working to become one of the most livable cities in the world, focusing on convenience, sustainability, and efficiency for residents and visitors alike.

Multibagger recycling stock delivers 560% return in 3 years, 4000% in 5. Are you holding it?
Small cap multibagger stock in focus: Stock market investing is often seen as a journey of patience and strategy. Those who can spot potential in companies early on and hold onto their investments tend to be rewarded the most. Unlike the quick profits from short-term trading, long-term investors understand the value of sticking with companies that demonstrate strong fundamentals, growth prospects, and industry leadership. In this context, Gravita India is a stock that has rewarded its long-term shareholders with phenomenal returns by maintaining a steady upward trajectory year after year. The company is one of the largest lead recyclers in India in the organized lead recycling market. Despite a sharp pullback in recent months amid market volatility and profit booking, Gravita India' stock is still trading with a massive 560% gain over the last three years and a phenomenal 4000% gain over the past five years, making it one of the biggest wealth creators in the Indian stock market. Looking at the long-term horizon, the stock, from its 2013 low of ₹ 21, has gained 900% to trade at the current price of ₹ 1859 apiece. The stock has delivered positive returns every year since 2020, with CY21 emerging as the best year, during which it rallied 280%. Meanwhile, the company has successfully raised ₹ 1,000 crore via a Qualified Institutional Placement (QIP), earmarked for growth capex, working capital, and debt reduction. The company is expected to be a beneficiary of the government's latest regulation on battery waste management, as the same would result in strong double-digit volume growth for its India-led sales volume. Moreover, the company is implementing sizable capacity expansion plans for existing recycling verticals in India as well as in the overseas business. Focusing on diversifying into the new recycling vertical, i.e., rubber, steel, paper, e-waste, and lithium, is expected to stream new business avenues and would support achieving management's 2029 target of 25%+/35%+ revenue/PAT CAGR along with 25% RoCE. Domestic brokerage firm, Sharekhan has recently reinitiated coverage on Gravita India with a positive view, projecting a 26% upside from the current market price as the brokerage sets ₹ 2280 as the target price. The brokerage said the company offers a compelling play on regulatory tailwinds, capacity expansion, and strategic forays into new recycling verticals. With a strong track record and expected revenue/PAT CAGR of 27%/30% over FY25–FY27E, it believes Gravita is well-positioned to sustain growth. Government emphasis on circular economy initiatives and the company's goal to increase the share of non-lead and value-added products to 30%+/50%+ respectively could act as key re-rating catalysts.

'China will do everthing to cripple India': Economic expert warns Delhi as Foxconn removes Chinese staff from iPhone plants
China's move to withdraw over 300 engineers from Foxconn 's iPhone manufacturing facilities in India has raised concerns over its impact on Apple 's production plans and India's manufacturing goals. The engineers, who were working at Tamil Nadu and Karnataka plants, played a key role in preparing for the next-generation iPhone 17. China pulls out trained workforce The recall of Chinese technicians is expected to disrupt ongoing training and delay the rollout of high-end manufacturing processes. Foxconn had heavily depended on these experts to guide local teams. While the company is now trying to fill the gap with Taiwanese and Vietnamese specialists and is training Indian workers, operations may still slow down. 'India seen as a flailing adversary' Commodities investor Surya Kanegaonkar, commenting on the development, said this was part of China's strategy to maintain dominance in Asia. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Walmart Cameras Captured These Hilarious 20 Photos Undo 'This comes as no surprise,' Kanegaonkar wrote on X. 'India is seen as a flailing adversary, struggling to get off the ground.' He said the exit of Chinese engineers should be viewed as a calculated attempt to block the transfer of technical know-how and hinder India's growth in electronics manufacturing. Live Events You Might Also Like: Foxconn asks hundreds of Chinese engineers, technicians to return home from iPhone factories in India: Report — suryakane (@suryakane) Supply chain concerns remain Kanegaonkar warned that India's reliance on Chinese supply chains remains a serious risk. He said the country still depends on China for machine tools, rare earth materials, and electronic components. 'India attempting to industrialise while being entirely dependent on Chinese machine tools, rare earths and electronics components is absurd. Every part of the supply chain should have been studied and fixed yesterday,' he said. Message to multinationals China's action is likely a part of a broader push to discourage companies from moving manufacturing out of China. Verbal orders to stop export of machines, talent, and components have also been reported. The message to multinationals is clear, relocating operations to India may come at a cost. India now manufactures nearly 20% of all iPhones. Apple plans to source a majority of its U.S.-bound iPhones from India by 2026. However, such moves by China could slow that progress. Investor points to policy weaknesses Kanegaonkar also criticized Indian policymakers for not preparing adequately for such situations.

'Being shown one's place as a state dependent on the largesse of friends and foes alike should warrant introspection and urgent reform,' he added. China blocks tech talent migration to rival manufacturing hubs The exodus comes as a major disruption to Apple's India expansion strategy, particularly as Foxconn constructs a new iPhone assembly facility in the region. While product quality may remain unaffected, assembly line efficiency could suffer during the critical ramp-up period for next-generation iPhone production. Beijing officials have quietly pressured regulatory agencies and local governments to restrict technology transfers and skilled labor exports to India and Southeast Asia, Bloomberg News reported. This coordinated effort aims to prevent Chinese companies from relocating manufacturing capabilities to competing nations amid escalating US-China trade tensions. The strategy extends beyond personnel, encompassing specialised equipment and technical know-how essential for high-tech manufacturing. China's actions come as countries like India and Vietnam aggressively court global technology companies seeking to diversify their supply chains away from Chinese dependence.
