Joby Just Flew an Aircraft Across the United States With No Pilot. Here's Why Wall Street Shrugged.

Joby's technology impressed, but Wall Street is waiting for revenue.

Joby Aviation has achieved a significant milestone by successfully flying an aircraft across the United States without a human pilot, with the sole onboard safety pilot making no control inputs throughout the journey. The autonomous flight, covering 3,199 miles from California to North Carolina, demonstrated the aircraft's ability to navigate complex airspace, avoid bad weather, and land independently.

Despite the lack of public reaction from Wall Street, the accomplishment marks the first autonomous transcontinental flight and highlights Joby's advanced autonomous flight technology.
