Six aircraft intended for urban air mobility application are “well along” in pursuing type certification with the Federal Aviation Administration, said Jay Merkle, head of the FAA’s UAS integration office, at the Transportation Review Board’s annual meeting in Orlando, Fla.
Commenting on future transportation technology coming to the world of aviation, Merkle ensured the audience that urban air mobility (UAM) is “more than just hype … this is more than just promotional videos.” He described the sector as meeting future demand for regional aerial trips ranging from 30 miles to 300 miles.
