Uncrewed Aircraft Systems and Advanced Air Mobility Operations – A Practitioner's Perspectives
Main Article Content
Abstract
Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (UAS) and Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) operations are increasing in number, complexity, and sophistication, offering significant benefits to the national economy, businesses, public safety agencies, and individuals. Realizing these benefits requires scalable, economically viable integration into the National Airspace System while addressing key regulatory and technical challenges to ensure safe, secure, and efficient operations.
