Innovative Air Mobility (IAM) has the potential to revolutionise last-mile transportation. To pave the way and accelerate market uptake, the project will validate complex IAM operations (piloted air taxi and unmanned cargo) in real-life air traffic control conditions, including contingency and non-nominal situations. It will specifically address air/ground integration and the critical transition from piloted towards automated flights, making use of several key autonomy-enabling technologies.
