“I was proud to be on the tarmac with the team for this flight. Crossing the 50-mile mark at speed is another clear step toward commercialization that shows the maturity of our program.” Source: Archer CEO Adam Goldstein, after Archer Aviation’s ‘Midnight’ electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft completed a 55-mile, 31-minute flight, marking its longest piloted flight to date. This, along with recent speed advancements, is a testament to the company’s envelope expansion efforts ahead of FAA certification.

At first glance, adding a third engine seems unnecessarily complex, particularly as modern long-haul airliners now thrive with only two. Yet this solution was very difficult to implement back in the 1960s for several reasons. It reflected the technological limitations, regulatory climate, and market demands of that era. Understanding why the DC-10 was conceived as a trijet helps illuminate the transition between the early jet age of…
