Why hasn’t Australia’s eVTOL market taken off yet?

While Australia is famous for its blazing sun, brilliant beaches and hopping kangaroos, it’s also been a breeding ground for many global groundbreaking innovations. Every commercial aircraft in the world now has a black box flight recorder installed to document pilot conversations in case of crashes. Every person who owns a smartphone can access Google Maps, all because Australia made it happen. But if the nation can pioneer some of the most critical inventions we use in our daily lives, why hasn’t it spearheaded creating electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft (eVTOLs) – or colloquially known as flying cars?
