In 2034, Salt Lake City will host the Winter Olympics for the second time, and electric air taxis may provide transportation for athletes and attendees. Beta Technologies has partnered with Utah to develop its electric plane testing in rural areas, capitalizing on the state's diverse geography and existing aviation infrastructure. CEO Kyle Clark notes the importance of support from state and local governments in this venture. The plan is to first focus on cargo transport and gradually transition to passenger services in time for the Olympics.
In our space, everybody (municipalities and states) wants to raise their hand, but it's only a few who step up and allocate the right resources.
If Beta can create a functioning network of electric planes to connect the remotest parts of Utah, it should streamline into carrying passengers for the Olympics.
