Congratulations to AMSL Aero Co-Founder Andrew Moore, who The Australian has named among Australia’s Top 100 Innovators of 2025 under the Manufacturing category. The article highlights our milestone achievement in late 2024, when Vertiia aircraft became the first Australian-designed eVTOL to achieve untethered free flight, putting us in an elite group of global companies. It also spotlights Vertiia's superior range as the first eVTOL in the world designed to utilise hydrogen for long-range, heavy-lift, and passenger operations. Thanks to Jared Lynch at The Australian, and congratulations on a mammoth achievement with the big list. https://lnkd.in/gSA58vDg #innovation #eVTOL #vTOL #sovereigncapability #hydrogen

The Australian Government has backed Vertiia once again, with a new $3 million grant to develop and demonstrate liquid hydrogen-powered aircraft for regional and remote Australia. Thank you to the Department of Industry Cooperative Research Centres Projects (CRC-P) Program for its support for the two-year $7.56 million project, called Liquid Hydrogen Powered Aircraft for Regional and Remote Australia. Thank you also to our partners FABRUM., Monash University, and Deakin University. Together we will design safe liquid hydrogen refuelling systems, test advanced fuel measurement and power distribution during various stages of flight of Vertiia and demonstrate refuelling procedures integrated with aircraft systems. #evtol #vtol #hydrogen #netzero #innovation https://lnkd.in/ggue3AVt

AMSL Aero chairman Chris Smallhorn spoke to Forge, a quarterly magazine that shines a spotlight on Australia’s economic and entrepreneurial successes, about how Vertiia is attracting interest from additional investors due to its superior range, speed, efficiency and zero-emissions capability. Vertiia will be used as an air ambulance and revolutionise passenger and cargo transit in regional areas. The new issue of Forge is available in Qantas lounges and the online version is attached in the comments, turn to page 52. With thanks to Larissa Ham and our long-time investors including IP Group plc ANZ, TelstraSuper, Hostplus and St Baker Energy Innovation Fund. #evtol #vtol #hydrogen #zeroemissions #netzero

We are delighted with the landmark partnership between Australian, US, UK, Canadian and New Zealand regulators to harmonise certification standards for eVTOLs, the next generation of electric aircraft that take off and land like a helicopter but fly fast and smoothly like a fixed-wing airplane. The National Aviation Authorities (NAA) Network’s new roadmap will lead to mutual acceptance of certifications, meaning an eVTOL like Vertiia approved in one member country could be swiftly recognised by the others. As we step up our development towards Australian certification of Vertiia, we congratulate the Civil Aviation Safety Authority for joining its peers in these four other leading aviation markets to streamline the certification and validation process for eVTOLs across international boundaries. This is substantial for the industry.
AMSL Aero accelerates global rollout of its hydrogen-electric eVTOL, Vertiia, backed by a new international agreement to harmonise certification standards. #eVTOL #CleanAviation https://lnkd.in/gcz_ExpC

"This is just the beginning..." Our CEO Adriano Di Pietro featured on leading Australia business and finance podcast Fear & Greed. He spoke about the AMSL Aero story so far and how Vertiia will be integrated into the transport system within the next decade. Because Vertiia can fly 1,000 km on hydrogen - far further than most if its competitors - it is regional and remote areas that will benefit most from our aircraft in that time. As Adriano put it: "There are a lot of people in regional Australian who rely on aviation to connect them with essential services in the city today. We believe they will benefit most."

"We are closer than you think..."" AMSL Aero CEO Adriano Di Pietro spoke with Monique Wright on Channel 7's Sunrise this morning about how Vertiia will fly 1,000 km on hydrogen with zero tail emissions and is on a path to certification by 2030. We were proud to see Vertiia on one of its 150+ successful test flights. Adriano spoke of our strong order book from great customers, including our first Aviation Logistics with its aeromedical, passenger, and cargo operations AirMed Australia, Airlink, and Chartair brands that are looking for the range, speed, flexibility, and payload Vertiia will bring. Thanks to Monique and Sunrise for the opportunity to share how Vertiia will connect Australians, save lives, create highly skilled jobs, and help to decarbonise aviation. #eVTOL #VTOL #AAM #hydrogen #zeroemissions #netzero #aviation #innovation Watch here - https://lnkd.in/gFK8YHqn
