Instead of targeting the short distance inter-city  UAM market as eVTOL are designed for, fixed wing electric airplanes<br> take the advantages of higher efficiency and longer range<br> to aim for the intra-city commute market. A German startup called  e.SAT unveiled its Silent Air Taxi design at Aachen-Merzbr\u00fcck Airfield  near Aachen in Germany on June 11, 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For full report of the project, please read &#8222;eFlight-Journal&#8220;.
