How big is the avionics repair station industry? According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, avionics technicians accounted for 20,800 jobs in 2022. So there are 8 billion human beings, 336 million people in the United States, yet only 20,800 individuals work as avionics technicians in the U.S. Armed with this data, how do you communicate your company’s brand to a relatively small number of avionics professionals? As the AEA’s monthly publication and the largest, single representation of approved maintenance organizations in the world, Avionics News is the best answer. With a print circulation of approximately 10,000 subscribers and more than 30,000 readers, Avionics News also receives more than 600,000 page views annually in its web-based digital edition. To be a successful business, you must be present to win. So if you’re not here within these pages, exactly how and where are you reaching the #avionics community?

HEMS and helicopter departures cannot afford to be delayed by the flight plan. RocketRoute QuickFile allows pilots to self-dispatch and safely get airborne in seconds. Learn more: https://hubs.ly/Q02mTyCG0 #aviation #rocketroute #flightplan

Late in 1901, Wilbur Wright, the famed American pilot, addressed a group of engineers on the subject of “Some Aeronautical Experiments” that he had conducted with his brother, Orville, during the previous two years. “The difficulties… are of three general classes: Those which relate to the construction of the wings. Those which relate to the power required to drive the machine through the air. Those which relate to the balancing and steering of the machine in-flight.” Those challenges were overcome; aviation licensing is easy by comparison. Let’s take to the skies together!

Autonomous technologies, electric propulsion, and advanced navigation systems are reshaping the aviation industry like never before ✈ Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) is at the forefront of this transformation, offering significant benefits across various industries (e.g. healthcare, logistics, passenger transport). Yet, it faces challenges in gaining social acceptance, ensuring operational feasibility and securing financial viability. The World Economic Forum AVIATE: Advanced Air Mobility community, gathering aviation executives from around the world, is exploring the implementation of AAM within society. Over the past year, our efforts have focused on: - Defining the scope of AAM - Creating a taxonomy for autonomy - Systematizing AAM use cases and pinpointing the pioneering ones - Identifying barriers and enablers for autonomy I invite you to discover more about our findings and insights in our latest white paper: https://lnkd.in/eZH5Bba5 We are now working on a playbook for implementation, including best practices and a consensus on the conditions for AAM to benefit society. Let’s catch up in Farnborough next week to talk about it! Maria J.

What does the future hold for air mobility in cities? 🏙 🛫 Urban Air Mobility poses many challenges for cities and their residents, but many people are proposing that drones and electric aerial taxis could play a role in the future of transport in cities. This new World Economic Forum report dives into the future of air mobility 📃 👇 How could aerial mobility play a role in the future of cities?

If we can do this very complex and mission critical project, imagine what we can do for your business. #weareinsurance #CGi #missioncritical

Great to see modern technologies being used to improve aviation safety.

Designed to be Safety and easy

The advent of eVTOL aircraft is being described as the “Third Revolution” in human flight, second only to the discovery of flight itself and the first jet aircraft. Small, lightweight, and inexpensive, an electrically-powered vertical takeoff and landing aircraft has the potential to become almost as ubiquitous as the jeep itself.
