佛州坦帕湾完成先进空中机动试飞：两架电动飞机横越海湾
佛罗里达州坦帕（Tampa），佛州交通厅10月30日在坦帕国际机场主办先进空中机动试飞：两架电池驱动的电动飞机横越坦帕湾完成演示。坦帕国际机场介绍了这次试飞。
演示由飞机制造商 Joby Aviation 与 BETA Technologies 参与，在联邦航空局与州交通厅协调下进行。飞机从 St. Petersburg 市中心的 Albert Whitted 机场起飞，沿着与1914年世界首次定期航班相同的坦帕湾路线飞行，最终在坦帕国际机场降落。1914年1月1日，飞行员 Tony Jannus 载着首位付费乘客、前 St. Petersburg 市长 Abram Pheil 横越坦帕湾，完成世界首次定期航班。
佛罗里达州是联邦航空局电动垂直起降飞行器综合试点计划在全国选定的8个合作伙伴之一。这类飞机未来可用于空中出租车、货运物流与紧急医疗运输。州交通厅表示，后续“未来飞行系列”演示将沿全州最繁忙的4号州际公路走廊展开。
Two Electric Aircraft Cross Tampa Bay in Florida Advanced Air Mobility Test Flight
TAMPA, Fla. — Florida's Department of Transportation hosted an advanced air mobility test flight at Tampa International Airport on October 30, sending two battery-powered electric aircraft across Tampa Bay in a public demonstration, the airport reported.
The flight, conducted with manufacturers Joby Aviation and BETA Technologies under coordination with the Federal Aviation Administration and the state DOT, took off from Albert Whitted Airport in downtown St. Petersburg and landed at Tampa International — retracing the route of the world's first scheduled airline flight on January 1, 1914, when pilot Tony Jannus carried former St. Petersburg mayor Abram Pheil, the first paying passenger, across the bay.
Florida is one of eight partners nationwide in the FAA's electric vertical takeoff and landing integration pilot program. The aircraft are envisioned for air taxi service, cargo logistics and emergency medical transport. The state DOT said follow-on "Future Flight Series" demonstrations will run along the busy Interstate 4 corridor.
