Why Infrastructure Matters for AAM
Advanced Air Mobility is not just about aircraft—it’s about the entire ecosystem that supports safe and efficient operations. As AAM technologies advance, purpose-built infrastructure will be required to support the seamless movement of passengers and cargo. This includes:
- Vertiports & Landing Facilities – Safe, accessible locations for electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft.
- Training & Simulation Centers – Preparing pilots, operators, and ground crews for the next generation of aviation.
- Sustainable Airport & Terminal Expansions – Integrating AAM into existing transportation hubs.
