Archer Midnight Electric Air Taxi Walkaround Tour

Archer Aviation has been working through FAA and other global regulatory certification to begin flying passengers in large cities. With an all-electric tilt-propeller machine that takes off like a helicopter and flies like an airplane, Archer is targeting up to 50-mile routes with one pilot and up to four passengers. Archer was showing off the Midnight at the 2025 NBAA-BACE convention in Las Vegas and we caught up with Archer’s Chief Legal and Strategy Officer, Eric Lentell, for a walkaround tour.

I see an overlay on the video thumbnail which says, “Click to enable marketing cookies and enable this content”. I don’t want to enable marketing cookies. What are the marketing cookies? How are they used? What disturbance of my peace and quiet will will that marketing lead to? Why is this is a condition of viewing AvBrief content?

It appears that this video is also available at www dot youtube dot com slash watch?v=2Pam9x4e6M0 , without any requirement to “enable marketing cookies”.

I do not see an “Opt-out preferences” link, just the text “Click to enable marketing cookies and enable this content”. As a test, I clicked on the “enable” text. There was no popup or confirmation or opt-out preferences link. Just a youtube preview.

Maybe the user experience is different on different OSs and browsers? I am reading on a current Firefox browser on macOS Sonoma 14.8.1 machine.

Your options depend on your location. See here: https://avbrief.com/opt-out-preferences/

Firefox has additional options that you have control over. The shield icon to the left of the url will give you those options.
