Hot Air Rises
The National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) has addressed two initiatives broadly believed critical to the safe, timely, and successful integration of Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) into the U.S. National Airspace System (NAS). Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) is defined, generally, as an air-transport system concept comprising new, transformational aircraft designs and flight technologies into existing and modified airspace operations. The NBAA’s comments—as informed by the Association’s AAM Roundtable and Emerging Technology Committee—provide direction to government agencies vis-à-vis proposals potentially impacting pilots, manufacturers, infrastructure developers, and other aerospace stakeholders.
