Skyportz air taxi networks.

The coming electric air taxi revolution in pictures…. There are literally hundreds of aircraft in development. There are a handful that have been flying for years and are progressing to commercial certification (it is an enormous step to go from a flying prototype to an aircraft able to take paying passengers). The future is going to be amazing - these front runners can be seen up close at various airshows around the world. They will initially simply replace helicopter operations using existing airports and helipads. The revolution comes when the nexus between aviation and airports is broken and property developers can incorporate vertiports into their plans. This is the space Skyportz® is working in. #aviation #aviationnews #evtol #airports #skyportz #advancedairmobility #vertiports #techdevelopment #infrastructure #infrastructureprojects #investmentopportunities #privateequity #venturecapital

Surely having certified evitol will change the scenarios but if we do not include more current AI-based safety systems in the UAM project to avoid impacts with objects and birds, I am afraid we will find ourselves in trouble. It seems too optimistic to think that drones cannot fall thanks to the materials and the redundancy concept with which they are built. We should have already experienced this, after all right?

Infrastructure and Ground Based System have a bright future. Flight systems soon in their life cycles will need to live off of the long-tail of spares, repairs and services. As the flight platforms will quickly become commoditized in a highly competitive market segments.

Not sure why we need flying cars
