The facility acquired by Joby will be fitted out to support
initial manufacturing operations in Dayton, which are expected to
begin later this year. The facility will be used for the
manufacturing of aircraft parts in support of Joby’s Pilot
Production Line in Marina, California.
Joby’s acquisition of the on-airport facility is the first step
in the Company’s plan to develop facilities capable of building up
to 500 aircraft per year in Dayton, which is expected to include
the design and construction of a larger greenfield factory.
“We’re pleased to be able to acquire an underutilized facility
at Dayton International Airport and repurpose it as a modern,
high-tech manufacturing center to serve as our initial
manufacturing footprint in the region. Later this year, we expect
to begin subtractive manufacturing of titanium and aluminum
aircraft parts as we continue to grow our workforce in Dayton,”
said Didier Papadopoulos, President of Aircraft OEM at Joby.
“I am deeply appreciative to the Dayton community, and Ohio more
broadly, for the warm welcome we have received as well as the high
level of interest in joining our team. We look forward to continued
collaboration and to growing our presence in the Miami Valley
region as we build the future of flight in the birthplace of
aviation.”
Joby announced in September 2023 that it had selected Dayton,
Ohio, as the location for its scaled manufacturing facility,
capable of producing up to 500 electric vertical take-off and
landing (eVTOL) aircraft per year, with plans to invest up to $500
million and create up to 2,000 high-quality, clean manufacturing
jobs in the region.
Joby’s electric air taxi is designed to carry a pilot and four
passengers at speeds of up to 200 mph, offering high-speed mobility
with a fraction of the noise produced by helicopters and zero
operating emissions.
