EHang said on Nov. 12 that its pilotless EH216-S completed Sri Lanka's first human-carrying eVTOL flights in Colombo on Nov. 11, which it called its first such flights in South Asia. The company said Ports and Civil Aviation Minister Anura Karunathilaka and Deputy Minister Janitha Ruwan Kodithuwakku were among the first passengers. EHang also said the EH216 series has logged nearly 100,000 safe flights and that Sri Lanka is the 24th country in that count. Those flight totals are company-reported.
