Adam Bry@adampbry·
Flying robots responding to 911 calls is no longer a concept; it's happening at scale across America. The impact is so substantial that it will quickly become the default expectation. The tech to deliver this is akin to “self-driving cars that fly” - a very long, difficult journey spanning hardware, software, manufacturing, and data. But @SkydioHQ has walked that path and is honored to now be the partner of choice for 1,200 agencies across the country (and rapidly growing).

Last week, I left my house in Los Angeles at 10:30 am. 2.5 hours later at 1 pm, I got out of my Uber and walked into the Encore hotel in Las Vegas. 🤯 All made possible by the newest JSX route from Santa Monica airport to Las Vegas! SMO service is a game changer for anyone living in LA. Valet parking for $30/day, arrive 15 minutes before your flight, and easy to bring your golf clubs. Will definitely be flying again. Thanks Ben Marcus for the heads up on this route and all of your advocacy for the airport and making it more accessible to the public. PS - Get $100 off your first JSX flight with my code: lnkd.in/gaSAqFNW

🤘✈️Israeli fighter jet pilot wishes all of Israel Shabbat Shalom 💪 as he flies over Tehran with TOTAL control of their airspace. 🇺🇸🇮🇱 Translation: “We are the pilots of the Israeli Air Force. We are currently flying in the skies over Tehran on the way to carry out historic missions. We are engaged in an operation whose goal is to remove an existential threat to our state. We will reach every place, every enemy, on behalf of our state and the security of our families. We are continuing to fight as needed around the clock, and we feel your support constantly. We wish you, the citizens of Israel, a safe and tranquil Shabbat. We will meet at home.”

There has never been an aerospace company moving as fast as Skydio on so many fronts. 3 reasons: 1. Now is the most exciting time in the history of the universe to build integrated HW/SW/AI aerospace products. 2. @SkydioHQ is unique in the talent of our team, our leadership position in the markets we serve, our level of vertical integration, and the resulting rapid growth of our business. 3. There is still so much left to build.
