Simplified vehicle operations (SVO) will be a key enabler of urban air mobility — and a break with how aviation has approached automation in the past.

Wisk will work with NASA to develop guidance on airspace structure, flight procedures and performance requirements that will benefit the FAA.

Current certification frameworks are not adequate for future autonomous aircraft systems. Here are the challenges faced by industry.

With numerous eVTOL prototypes flying, industry is at times frustrated by regulators’ approach and speed — while regulators want more data.

The agency is still looking for input on how manned aviation can effectively interface with and benefit from drone remote identification.

Introducing autonomous systems into aviation will require careful careful consideration of the strengths and weaknesses of humans and AI.
