Air taxis, drones, green planes: What is advanced air mobility?
IMAGINE commuting from Jurong to the Central Business District during rush hour, but in a fraction of the time, at the same price as a taxi – and by air. That’s the promise of advanced air mobility (AAM), a new form of aviation that is expected to take off in the next few years.
Asia-Pacific civil aviation authorities are working on guidelines – expected to be ready by 2025 – to pave the way for commercial AAM operations.
The Business Times explains how AAM differs from conventional aviation, the state of play, and when you might be able to take a flight in an air taxi.
