An air taxi pilot program in O.C.?

ARCHER AVIATION Archer Aviation A RENDERING OF an Archer air taxi at the Coliseum. The firm says it is buying Hawthorne Airport.

Archer is an electric aircraft technology company looking to expand its network, said George Kivork, the firm’s general manager for Southern California.

The aircraft is 100 times quieter than a helicopter, Kivork said.

“We would like to explore the opportunity to bring this zero-emission, all-electric aircraft to this market, to this community,” Kivork said.

The aircraft seats four passengers and a pilot, goes up to 150 mph and has a range of up to 100 miles. The idea is to use the plane for short hops between cities, like from Huntington Beach to Los Angeles International Airport or Long Beach Airport.
