About
Kitty Hawk was an electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft company backed by Google co-founder Larry Page. Founded in 2010 and headquartered in Palo Alto, California, the company spent over a decade developing autonomous electric aircraft and air taxi technology, including the Cora air taxi project. After more than 12 years of operation, Kitty Hawk announced it was winding down operations in September 2022, citing the challenging economics of the air taxi market. The Cora project was transferred to Wisk Aero, a joint venture with Boeing.
