Abstract/Description

This briefing provides a high and low altitude view of what is coming in the way of Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) innovation. It is meant for county, town, or city officials; tribal governments; local businesspersons; airport, heliport, Fixed Base Operator (FBO), flight schools’ owners/operators; and other individuals; who wish to capitalize on, and prepare for, a US industry expected to hit around USD 68 Billion by 2032. Is your community or organization prepared for this new economy? Are your customers, or constituents accepting of these new technologies? Are you ready to capitalize on this AAM market and all the growth it promises to bring with it? According to Deloitte, the foremost industry-insight, audit, and consultancy firm, the AAM market is estimated to reach USD 115 Billion annually by 2035, employing more than 280,000 high-paying jobs. Is your workforce up to the task? The high-altitude view shows the US government legislation and policies, while only briefly mentioning other countries’ efforts by way of comparison. This legislation and policymaking include infrastructure development, cleaner energy sources, pilot certification, and novel aircraft designs and technology. The low-altitude view uncovers the details, in terms of operator training, operational frameworks, land use needs, environmental impact, access to airspace, energy grid demands, infrastructure planning, transportation connectivity, charging stations, physical security, cybersecurity readiness, public awareness, community engagement, and education campaigns. Additionally, this briefing includes a highlight of some of the US States that are ahead of others in terms of preparedness for AAM operations.
