Vertical Aerospace plans to fly its electric take-off and landing aircraft at the Farnborough International Airshow 2026. This year's show will feature displays from major manufacturers including Bombardier. Its Global 8000 jet set a fresh speed mark during its Los Angeles to London flight before the trade show. Organizers confirmed the airshow will proceed even with notable pullouts . The planned opening ceremony was scrapped after a political snub involving a local official. Conflicts and new aircraft orders will take center stage talks during the summer trade days.
