Brief Description:

In the first part of this seminar we'll examine Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) -  an umbrella term for highly automated and electric aircraft. These aircraft are often referred to as air taxis or electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft.

AAM has the potential to achieve the Administration's vision of more efficient, sustainable, and equitable transportation while creating thousands of great jobs.

But AAM is not just about passenger transport. It holds the potential to revolutionize cargo transportation, aid in firefighting and search and rescue operations, and, crucially, bridge the gap for underserved and rural communities.

In the second part of our seminar, we'll have Pilot Hiring and Career Seminar Featuring Heather and Heath Bowers of Aviator Mentor. Bring your questions!!
