Advanced Air Mobility

The Brisbane City Council last week released a proposal to overhaul the city’s transportation system, including the potential introduction of urban air mobility services.

Boeing former chief strategy officer B. Marc Allen, who held an array of positions with the company for more than a decade, will lead the hybrid-electric aircraft manufacturer.

The space agency’s AIRVUE project uses cameras and sensors to collect information on obstacles in the environment, compiling it into a massive database.

Cessna aircraft equipped with Joby Aviation and Reliable Robotics’ autonomy systems fly more than 6,600 miles over the course of a five-day exercise.

Advanced air mobility firms Joby Aviation, Lilium, and Electra, are among those to be featured at this year’s event in Las Vegas.

The manufacturer put the aircraft’s electrical power system, comprising 30 engines within flaps on the main wing and canard, through a series of simulations and tests.

The manufacturer will need to obtain the FAA’s sign-off before customers can begin training on its CX300.

The military is intrigued by the aircraft’s mix of vertical takeoff and landing capability and low noise.

The electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft manufacturer could sell as many as 116 Midnight air taxis to Future Flight Global.

Air taxi manufacturers will have another opportunity to showcase their technology to the world at the 2028 Summer Games in Los Angeles.
