The eVTOL Insights Podcast The eVTOL Insights Podcast

In this episode, we were delighted to welcome back Sergio and get an update on what his company is doing since we last spoke.

As well as the popular Reality Index for OEMs entering service, we talk about a similar Infrastructure and the background behind its creation. Sergio tells us what his key findings are when it comes to infrastructure, and then touches upon a partnership exploring the potential for AAM in Saudi Arabia.

We then discuss more of the 'mundane' issues which perhaps aren't being discussed, such as insurance and operational efficiency, and then what do we need to ask city authorities when we look to integrate small-scale commercial operations.

In this episode, Pat introduces us to Tinley Park and shares more detail on how the area might benefit from Advanced Air Mobility.

He tells us about his role and Tinley Park's involvement in Eve Air Mobility demo in Chicago back in 2022, and gives his thoughts on whether the Windy City could become a future city for Advanced Air Mobility operations, especially with potential operations from O'Hare International Airport. We also hear Pat's thoughts 'from the outside' of the industry, when it comes to infrastructure and community support.

Pat also discusses the ongoing project to renovate Tinley Park's helistop and converting to a heliport with fuel and infrastructure for future electric charging.

In this episode, Guillaume shares an update on Wisk's company roadmap and ongoing work to develop its Gen 6 aircraft, including when we can see more flight testing. He talks about the recent Iron Bird video, as well as diving into why Wisk is going down the autonomy route.

Sticking with autonomy, we talk about the passenger experience on board Wisk's aircraft before discussing the company's partnership with Sugar Land in Texas and ongoing presence in Montreal, including why it chose the city and what makes it such a good place to set up an aerospace company.

In this episode, Ben and Lee introduce us to Drive System Design (DSD) and what the company is working on in the Advanced Air Mobility market.

As DSD is helping to fast-track the development of electric aircraft, we learn more about this, as well as one of the company's products the AePOP project or Aerospace Electrified Powertrain Optimisation Process.

While there are many challenges to solve in this market, we ask Ben and Lee what their top three would be and how DSD is best suited to resolve them.

In this episode, Dave tells us more about the company's growing role in Advanced Air Mobility and the exhaustive list of partners it is working with to build the next generation of aircraft.

Dave also shares more details on Project OperA, which was launched to help bring autonomous flight to Europe, and what is believed to be the industry's first certification reference guide across key vehicle segments.

We also talk about Honeywell's AAM business unit has so far, which has secured contracts worth an incredible $10 billion, and what this says about the industry and its progress so far.

In this episode, Amit deep dives into some of the various public and private eVTOL trials the companies have been involved in. He tells us what findings it took from them and goes on to talk about how ANRA can play a key role in the Advanced Air Mobility market.

As Global civil aviation authorities are taking a lot of different approaches when it comes to commercial eVTOL operations, Amit tells us about the software systems and technologies needed to ensure they are safe, compliant, and integrated with existing ATM services.

Amit then shares some key partnerships and updates from ANRA partnered with NAVOS Air to develop vertiports for UAM and assesses the landscape of the current industry and the challenges and opportunities which lie ahead.
