Has anybody seen whether the new Air is compatible with the iPad Pro 10.5 keyboard?

It seems like a bit of a side grade in some ways, but if the keyboard is compatible it does save some money on buying accessories.

It doesn't state whether or not the iPad Air can use the current 10.5 iPad Pro keyboard, but unless the smart plug does not align with the current 10.5 iPad Pro keyboard then I don't see why it wouldn't work.

Yes it’s compatible, they’re the same.
