With new contracts, partnerships and flight tests spanning multiple countries and companies, efforts are advancing to develop electric conventional takeoff and landing (eCTOL) and electric short takeoff and landing (eSTOL) aircraft for advanced air mobility (AAM) applications.
The Vertical Flight Society (VFS), the world’s leading non-profit organization working to advance vertical flight, has published a groundbreaking whitepaper for multimodal hydrogen airport. The goal of the VFS H2-Aero whitepaper, “Multimodal Hydrogen Airport Hub,” is to propose a repeatable hydrogen hub for the airport, first with a ground vehicle fueling station, and later expanding to an airport-based hub supplying multiple modes of transportation.
With an eye towards launching operations by the middle of the decade, leading developers of electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft are pressing hard and making demonstrable progress towards certification and beginning advanced air mobility (AAM) operations.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is aiming to release a plan for regulating eVTOL aircraft operations in May.
A new version of popular flight simulator software helps Beta Technologies develop an advanced air mobility aircraft and might orient new aviators to electric vertical takeoff and landing.
There are few aspects of an electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft that are more critical to the aircraft’s success than the electrical components themselves.
The Vertical Flight Society has posted several additional photo albums of eVTOL aircraft and events.
