Midnight is designed to be capable of taking off and landing conventionally (CTOL) or vertically (VTOL) to serve the full spectrum of flight operations and safety standards. This dual-mode capability gives it the flexibility to operate safely across a wide range of infrastructure, from traditional airports and runways to urban vertiports and constrained landing zones.

Silence is g̶o̶l̶d̶e̶n̶ electric. A look back at Midnight's highly-anticipated flights at the Salinas Airshow this weekend showcasing smooth, quiet and thrilling electric flight. Despite reaching speeds upwards of 125 MPH, the lack of noise coming from Midnight was the highlight of the experience for the tens of thousands of onlookers.

Midnight’s controls are innovative and simple, using two side sticks to control altitude, speed, and direction during flight. Think of it like manual vs automatic in cars. Because Midnight is fly-by-wire, software translates the pilot's movements with the sticks to automatically transition between flight modes, smoothly speed up or slow down, and hold the aircraft's position, airspeed, and direction. This allows pilots to focus more on the flight, not the mechanics of commanding several different control surfaces all at once.

Archer aircraft are powered by advanced fly-by-wire systems. This means that flight computers act as an intermediary between the pilot and control surfaces, translating the pilot's commands to the aircraft's movement. This decreases workload on the pilot, reducing human error and freeing the pilot to focus on navigation and communication.

🇦🇪 Midnight has flown in the UAE We kicked off our UAE Launch Edition program today with a test flight in Abu Dhabi at Al Bateen Executive Airport. Our initial flight test operations in the UAE are focused on evaluating the aircraft's VTOL performance in UAE-specific conditions, including high temperature, humidity and dust exposure, to allow our team to validate readiness for commercial deployment. Thank you to the Senior Leaders from the الهيئة العامة للطيران المدني, Invest with Abu Dhabi | استثمر مع أبوظبي, Integrated Transport Centre, Abu Dhabi Aviation, ABU DHABI AIRPORTS مطارات أبوظبي and representatives from our regional partners for joining us to witness this milestone.

We’ve entered the next phase of our flight test program, showcasing piloted Midnight flight, as well as CTOL capabilities. The piloted flight featured a conventional take-off and landing (CTOL) demonstrating the robustness of Midnight’s landing gear which is capable of performing both vertical and conventional take-off and landing operations. Through our design and certification process, our team, government regulators and our customers, both civil and defense, have identified the importance of being able to conduct both vertical and conventional take-off and landing as part of normal operation of the aircraft as having CTOL capabilities in addition to VTOL provides operational flexibility and enhanced safety. Watch the full flight as Midnight cruises at speeds of up to 125 mph and reaches a maximum altitude of over 1,500 feet above ground level with Archer Chief Test Pilot, Jeff Greenwood, at the controls.

Here's a look behind the scenes of our first annual Pilot Summit where we invited pilots from leading airlines all over the world including United Airlines, Southwest Airlines, JAPAN AIRLINES【JAL】, Abu Dhabi Aviation, and more to Archer HQ to meet our team and Midnight. The visit included talks from Archer leadership, aircraft familiarization sessions, a look at our manufacturing facilities, time in the Midnight flight simulator and a tour of our aircraft and flight test facilities in Salinas. Thanks to everyone who joined us! Airlink, Caltrans HQ, Etihad Airways, Fly Compton, JSX, Pegasus Airlines, Sling Pilot Academy, Spirit Airlines

Redundancy isn’t a backup plan. It’s the plan. During our Q1’25 operating and financial results call, Archer CTO, Tom Muniz, referenced this flight test from last year—Midnight flying smoothly with an engine out. With 12 electric motors, Midnight is designed to handle the unexpected. As detailed by Tom, this is a powerful demonstration of the “safety-by-design” approach that is core to our aircraft. Watch the test flight. See the benefits of our proprietary 12 tilt 6 design in action.
