At the Farnborough International Air Show 2024, SkyGrid's CEO Jia Xu joined a dynamic panel during the Global Urban & Advanced Air Summit (GUAAS). The discussion with industry leaders centered on the commercial sustainability of #AdvancedAirMobility and the pathways to achieving it.
Key insights from the panel discussion highlighted that early operations in #AAM will prioritize existing use cases, such as cargo, to validate operations before scaling to high-volume air taxi services. An ecosystem approach is essential, involving vehicle certification by OEMs, defining concepts of operations, and fostering social acceptance through education. Scalability hinges on effective airspace integration using digital systems for situational awareness and control and maintaining low operational costs through efficient manufacturing, operations, and cost-sharing partnerships.
