Episode Synopsis "Urban Air Traffic Management"

Electric air taxis, also called electric vertical take-off and landing vehicles (eVTOLs), will soon be operational. These ‘green’ aircraft will deliver on-demand urban flights and make trips across cities quick, easy and more affordable. In this episode speak with Brenden Hedblom and David Rottblatt from Eve Air Mobility about the work that is taking place to support the growth of urban air mobility (UAM) in the UK.Eve Air Mobility is leading a consortium of world leading aviation organisations that is working with the UK CAA to define the airspace design, procedures and infrastructure required for safely integrating new types of electric air taxi operations into the UK’s low level airspace.More about this workEmbraerX – Urban Air Traffic Management concept videohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSkyvOV5Mcw&t=5sUK Air Mobility Website - https://ukairmobility.com/Flight Plan 2030https://daflwcl3bnxyt.cloudfront.net/m/72d6ed98a71cb43f/original/200702_AF_EMBX_White_Paper_DM.pdf UATM Concept of Operations, co-written with Airservices Australiahttps://daflwcl3bnxyt.cloudfront.net/m/3dc1907d3388ff52/original/PPJ016561-UATM-Concept-of-Operations-Design_D11-FINAL.pdf The UK CAA’s Innovation Hub at https://www.caa.co.uk/innovation
