Vertical Aerospace Opens New Assembly Centre at Cotswold Airport
What happened
Vertical Aerospace announced the opening of a dedicated Aircraft Assembly Centre at its Flight Test Centre at Cotswold Airport. This facility is a key milestone in the company's transition from prototype development into certification and commercial production of its Valo electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. The new centre adds 60,000 square feet of operational and aircraft assembly space and is designed to assemble more than 25 Valo aircraft annually during early production.

Why it matters
The centre supports the company's shift toward high-volume manufacturing capabilities for its Valo product line. This facility is intended to support the eventual announcement of a separate, full-scale production site needed for higher-volume manufacturing.
