Simple Flying - Daniel Martinez Garbuno
The next five years will be decisive for the development of urban air mobility.
On Wednesday, Advanced Air Mobility and Corporación América Airports signed a Memorandum of Understanding to develop, design, and integrate a service and support ecosystem for urban air mobility (UAM) operations in Latin America through electric Vertical and Take Off Landing aircraft (eVTOL). Corporación América Airports, an important operator of 53 airports in six countries (including Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, and Ecuador), will look to develop vertiports across the region.
Corporación América Airports said the next five years will be decisive for the development of urban air mobility worldwide. Aviation will play a leading role in defining this. Nonetheless, before an urban air mobility ecosystem can fully develop, it needs ground infrastructures and operations, airports, and the integration of different transportation modes.
