eVTOL aircraft design configurations and method of categorization

AAM, Advanced Air Mobility, eVTOL, Innovation, Sustainability

Several different eVTOL aircraft designs have emerged across the globe to serve Advanced Air Mobility; however, there is yet to be an international consensus on the taxonomy for such designs. This short article reviews some methods for eVTOL aircraft categorization and presents how some of the existing and emerging eVTOL aircraft designs could be distinguished according to a specific method of categorization.

Defining Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) sustainability through UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

AAM, Advanced Air Mobility, Sustainability

Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) is commonly thought to have potentially great social and economic benefits for the world, particularly in environmental protection and sustainability. However, while the goals for environmental protection are readily defined, the goals for sustainability need better harmonization and definition. This short note analyses AAM, and through discussions with industry experts, explores the possibility of defining the goals of sustainability in AAM using the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs).
