We’re proud to announce that Archerfield Airport Corporation (AAC) and Wisk have signed a landmark Strategic Alliance Agreement to support eVTOL air taxis at Archerfield Airport, Queensland’s largest general and corporate aviation airport. eVTOL (electric vertical take-off and landing) aircraft are set to revolutionise aviation, providing fast, clean and quiet advanced air mobility (AAM) transport options. Under the Strategic Alliance Agreement, AAC and Wisk Aero will embark on a variety of projects aimed at developing the AAM ecosystem and operations at Archerfield Airport.

Airport Safety Week has landed at Archerfield Airport, and what a fantastic turnout! We kicked off the week with an insightful seminar on Tuesday, featuring guest speaker Christopher Lea from Basair Aviation College, who delivered an engaging presentation on fostering a positive safety culture. On Wednesday, we hosted our annual Foreign Object Debris (FOD) walk, with an incredible participation of over 130 attendees! Seeing our community come together to support airport safety was inspiring. As part of the FOD walk day, we were thrilled to present two awards: Carly Andrews from Flight One Pty Ltd, who won the 5c Challenge, which involved finding a 5c coin on our main runway. Gioyver from Acacia Ridge State. These events truly emphasise the importance of community and vigilance in maintaining safe and efficient airport operations.
