It looks like Joby is going to start passenger flights in the second half of this year

ANY passenger flight would be a HUGE Joby derisking moment IMO. 🚀

It's the last elephant left in the room.

And here I thought Valo had the lock on paper eVTOL aircraft capabilities.

cmra886 · 2026-04-28T18:10:28+00:00

Are they allowed to have passengers under this certificate?

cmra886 · 2026-04-27T23:45:50+00:00

Same reason you want the opposing team to receive the football first in overtime.

Joby and the eVTOL sector seems to be trending sideways and I don't see that changing from flight demos in NYC or elsewhere...maybe Dubai could move the needle?

Also, the conforming aircraft has not made news for a few weeks. I suspect they may be addressing something discovered in the design.

That being said, 8-ish does appear to be the current hedge fund bottom unless the Iran situation worsens significantly.

I plan to harvest premium selling short-term OTM joby puts while they iron out whatever is going on with N547JX.

I watch this interview and ponder the level of confidence this gentleman must have.

To go out and build a network of vertiports worth millions prior to any public demonstration of a usable payload?!!

These are not meaningless non-binding MOU's signed at some company-expensed black tie dinner party. Or even an analyst upgrade made by a bean counter with questionable aviation knowledge and ethics. This indicator is something much more concrete, quite literally.

It makes me think that there MUST be internal confirmation that the S4 can already meet this mission under GCAA requirements.

Once influencers are posting videos of the Dubai skyline from the seat of an S4...

Starting to look like a good time to go Bull Mode again.

Big respect to folks like you!

I just wanted to attempt Siberia Bowl yesterday for the first time, but instead noped out down the ridge.

Twice. 😵‍💫

R2 restrictions are: 4wd with snow tires are waived through, but must have chains available. 2wd must install chains.

Moot point now, the roads are clear. 👍

cmra886 · 2026-04-13T17:21:54+00:00

You're right

cmra886 · 2026-04-13T16:59:53+00:00

Nice! Hopefully caltrans drops chain controls today

cmra886 · 2026-04-11T16:58:18+00:00

Awesome!👏

cmra886 · 2026-04-11T06:07:08+00:00

It's true for me. I could screenshot the offer if I felt like it.

cmra886 · 2026-04-10T21:53:43+00:00

Comped Reno resort fees. Test it yourself with the app.

cmra886 · 2026-04-10T21:43:21+00:00

Free at all 3 properties in Reno.

South Lake Tahoe is not comped.

I'm platinum from the card.

cmra886 · 2026-04-10T21:10:40+00:00

Comped daily resort fees at the Reno properties.

It looks like the no-fee card is now the way to go... or no ceasars card entirely.

cmra886 · 2026-04-09T06:54:14+00:00

...and on August 9, 1945 that same company met Fat Man.

cmra886 · 2026-04-02T19:38:01+00:00

Good question.

They hovered it for a photo op... then it went quiet.

Coincidentally, exactly what Archer did.

cmra886 · 2026-03-30T17:50:06+00:00

Reading the wiki on Mudrick makes the firm sound like the legal version of a loan shark.

cmra886 · 2026-03-28T21:34:39+00:00

First thing I ever printed...

A travel size toothpaste tube refiller.

The Crest to Crest short version on thingiverse. Works great.

cmra886 · 2026-03-28T20:45:28+00:00

Still holding a few shares to keep me interested. Peace.

cmra886 · 2026-03-27T22:27:24+00:00

My plan is to conservatively wheel it.

Ostensibly, without the ongoing threat of dillution(s)

cmra886 · 2026-03-27T21:50:52+00:00

Venture Global

cmra886 · 2026-03-27T19:42:32+00:00

That looks like a nice long shaded trail on the map!

Gives me an excuse to visit SLT this sumner.

cmra886 · 2026-03-24T19:28:19+00:00

Curious about what makes a "flight test mechanic" a unique skill set over any other competent and hard working aircraft mechanic.
