JOBY AVIATION TO BE FEATURED IN NOVA DOCUMENTARY, “GREAT ELECTRIC AIRPLANE RACE” AIRING MAY 26 ON PBS

Film includes rare look at Joby Aviation flight test facility and Joby’s all-electric air taxi in flight

May 25, 2021: SANTA CRUZ, Calif.—(BUSINESS WIRE)—Joby Aviation (“Joby” or the “Company”), a transportation company developing an all-electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft that it intends to operate as a commercial passenger aircraft beginning in 2024, will be featured in the NOVA documentary, “Great Electric Airplane Race” airing May 26, 2021 at 9 pm EST on PBS and will be available for streaming online and on the PBS video app.

The filmmakers behind the documentary were provided rare behind-the-scenes access to Joby’s test facility in October 2020 where they interviewed executives and saw demonstrations of the Joby eVTOL aircraft in flight.

In a recent interview with eVTOL.com about his experience filming the special, Producer, Director, and Writer Miles O’Brien said: “Joby blew me away. Just to see that aircraft fly, to see the level of competency, the infrastructure, the vertical integration . . . I was just amazed at how far down the road [founder JoeBen Bevirt] has gotten in stealth.”

The documentary examines the potential for new emission-free electric planes to revolutionize transportation. As the series has done with emerging industries in the past, NOVA will offer viewers an exciting glimpse at what’s to come, examining aircraft prototypes from companies working to realize this new form of transportation, including Joby’s aircraft which have already flown more than 1,000 test flights.

“This film looks at the electrification of aviation in a way that no media has touched on before,” said O’Brien. “Electric flight is going to change not just the way we fly, but how we move around in general. As a pilot myself, I was truly amazed at how far along the technology is and how close we may be to electric aviation becoming a broader reality.”

The one-hour special features footage of Joby’s aircraft in flight and interviews with Joby’s Founder and CEO, JoeBen Bevirt, discussing advancements the Company has made in its quest to make aerial ridesharing accessible.

This episode of NOVA premieres as Joby prepares to merge with Reinvent Technology Partners (“Reinvent” or “RTP”) (NYSE:RTP), a special purpose acquisition company that takes a “venture capital at scale” approach to partnering with bold leaders and companies.
