Earlier this month, we were honored to attend the first Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) summit held by The White House. This historic event brought together government, industry, and academic experts in an effort to usher in a new era in aviation. Learn more about the progress being made to ensure that the U.S. maintains its global leadership in aviation, and the important role autonomy plays in this effort.

Wisk’s groundbreaking work through New Zealand’s Airspace Integration Trial Program is highlighted in this special feature from eVTOL News.

California-based Wisk Aero has revealed that its sixth-generation eVTOL aircraft — the model that the company plans to get type certified with U.S. aviation authorities — will have four seats.

Emerging air taxi developers are eventually planning to fly their fleets autonomously—without a pilot on board to guide decision making. Wisk’s piloting system will be based on “a foundational, deterministic, rule-based approach to flight—akin to a Boeing 737 that’s on autopilot for most of the flight. It’s largely the same process and approach as developing and certifying an autopilot system.”
