eVTOL developers promise thousands of aircraft by the start of next decade, but is this realistic?

I am not even talking about the long and costly certification processes, let’s assume, for the sake of simplicity, that this is sorted.

What about the capacity of aerospace supply chains, already strained trying to cope with the demand from traditional aircraft makers, to serve this new growth market?

Are the current processes and technologies flexible enough to respond to this market demand?

We are going to talk about all this with this episode’s guest, Stefan Schamberger, an aerospace supply chain expert who knows the world of aerostructures manufacturing inside out.

In this industry analysis writings, Stefan raises also an interesting point: what if the ultimate value delivered by the whole advanced air mobility (AAM) revolution was to facilitate the advent of the new generation mid-sized airliner which both Boeing and Airbus are aiming to launch some time in the middle of the next decade?

How transfereable are skills and technologies between the “old” and “new” aerospace industries?

Tune in for a fascinating chat about the industrial processes and infrastructure that make today’s aerospace industry possible!
