In this episode, Sue and Kurt give us a broad overview of the NASA's ATM-x Project and how it fits into the Advanced Air Mobility market. We talk about the main challenges NASA sees when integrating eVTOL aircraft into existing airspace and how ATM-x approaches the concept of scalable, automated air traffic management for urban air mobilty.

We also ask Kurt and Sue's thoughts on vertiports with current airport infrastructure and what types of simulations are under way within the ATM-x program. Kurt describes a typical scenario or test use case for low-altitude air traffic and Sue answers how NASA is collaborating with the FAA, OEMs and industry partners.

In this episode, Megha shares more exciting updates about Eve's company roadmap and its eVTOL aircraft, as well as going into detail about the holistic approach it is taking when helping to build the future AAM ecosystem.

We discuss what is in store for the rest of 2025, the exciting partnerships it has made across the world - including India, South Korea and Brazil - and Eve's relationship with Brazil's ANAC which focuses on the importance of close collaboration between regulators and certification bodies.

As well as the aircraft, Megha talks about how Eve is approaching vertiport infrastructure and integration with existing urban environments, then the work towards building public trust in Advanced Air Mobility.

In this episode, Euan walks us through the design perspective when bringing eVTOL aircraft concepts to life, especially how designing for the sky differs from designing for the road.

Euan talks about balancing form and function in electric or hybrid aircraft, and shares more details about the work Frank Stephenson Design is doing with Chinese eVTOL OEM AutoFlight.

We talk about how emotion might play a role in the design of AAM aircraft and what the biggest human factor challenges might be when designing interiors and cabins, incluing how we envision accessibility and inclusivity.

Euan also talks about how design can help normalise and build trust in these new aircraft and we ask him if he could design the ideal AAM experience, what they would like.

In this episode, Marc shares Electra's core mission and how its electric short take-off and landing (eSTOL) aircraft fits into it.

He walks us through its key features and explains the role hybrid-electric propulsion can play in balancing performance, range and sustainability. Marc also talks about what type of spaces could become new 'airports' and how Electra can help serve underserved and rural areas which lack access to traditional aviation.

We also go into detail about certifcation and commercialisation, the biggest hurdles and how regional air mobility will evolve over the next decade. as well as the next steps in Electra's roadmap over the 12 - 18 months.

In this episode, Emily and Sergio share more details about Texas DOT and the role it is playing in the emerging Advanced Air Mobility market. The pair talk about the opportunities and challenges within the US state, what projects the team are working on to help bring the vision to life and how they think the next 2-3 years will pan out when integrating AAM in major cities. We also talk about public adoption, and how stakeholders can help educate future passengers on the benefits of traveling using new technologies.

In this episode, Carl introduces us to Jump Aero and his background in Advanced Air Mobility, before sharing the reasons why he set up the company. He goes into detail about the latest white paper and Jump Aero's solution, and then talks about the JA1 Pulse aircraft, which he describes as the 'fastest eVTOL for emergency response'. We also talk about emergency response as a critical business case and what Jump Aero's roadmap is looking like over the next 2 - 3 years.

In this episode, Stephen introduces us to Windracers and the background behind the UK-based manufacturer of autonomous cargo drones.

Founded in 2017, Windracers' self-flying aircraft were originally conceived to bring down the cost of delivering humanitarian aid to remote communities. Stephen talks to us about its latest model, the ULTRA Mk2 and how it can have the greatest impact across a variety of different sectors.

Windracers has already completed some fascinating projects at locations across the world, including Antarctica, so we talk more about the learnings from and what else they have in store for 2025.

In this episode, Richard talks about his role at NATS, the UK's provider or air traffic control services, and how it links to Advanced Air Mobility. The company has recently released a white paper entitled 'Advancing Aviation through Integration of Drones in the UK’s Low-Level Airspace', so Richard shares more information on why it was created and the key takeaways.

The white paper also details the successful completion of Project CAELUS, part of UKRI's Future Flight Challenge, so we talk about this and the impact the learnings can have on this emerging industry. Aside from Advanced Air Mobility, we also find out how NATS envision a thriving low-level airspace economy for industries like healthcare and logistics.

In this episode, Clint shares his current insights into the industry and dives into the infrastructure topic - given his work in this area of the ecosystem. He talks about some of the exciting projects he has worked on in key cities such as Los Angeles, and shares his thoughts about how they can play a key role in the early adoption of Advanced Air Mobility.

We also talk about one of Clint's passion projects, which is integrating AAM into wider communities. He shares his experiences of visiting Maori communities in New Zealand and also Native American leaders in Oklahoma, and their input can help to bring the industry to everyone.

In this episode, Richard and Marc introduces Evolito's journey since its inception back in 2021 and talk about how it has quickly become a leader when it comes to transforming air travel.

We talk about its roadmap over the next five years as well as its current projects, which includes an exciting partnership with Flying Whales. Richard shares more details about certification and we also talk about current industry trends and how they are shaping the market as we move further into 2025.
