BETA Technologies' ALIA VTOL is a piloted electric powered-lift aircraft developed for cargo, logistics, medical, and passenger missions. Four lift propellers support vertical flight, while a separate rear propeller and fixed wing provide efficient cruise. Full-scale prototypes have progressed from tethered hover through wing-borne flight and piloted transition testing, and a production-intent aircraft entered piloted flight testing under a special airworthiness certificate in 2025.
