Great pleasure presenting last Thursday on accommodating #hydrogen-powered electric VTOL (H2eVTOL) #aircraft techs at #vertiports to the @vtolsociety.bsky.social Arizona Chapter. Watch the recording here: buff.ly/l4OIvzB. 🚁 #aaminfra #aerospace #aviation #engineering #verticalflight #vtols

#Aviation saves lives. The lack of aviation facility can prevent lifesaving medevac to bring patients to 🏥 on time. That's one of the reasons why a well-thought aviation system serving all communities including the most remote ones is so important. Glad I live in North Carolina! 🚁 #verticalflight

Controlled-rate descent and landing in the Sikorsky S-92 (5N-BOA), operated by Bristow Helicopters. The aircraft's stability and the pilot's subtle control inputs are on full display here for a very graceful touchdown.

Earlier this week, members of our #aviation team in Raleigh, NC attended flight demonstrations by Wing #drone delivery. 🚁 Weather was "cloudy with a chance of dessert". 🍨 We got ice cream... literally falling from the sky! 😊 #aam #aerospace #aircraft #engineering #microfreight #verticalflight #vtols

*But safer, lower OPEX, higher #aircraft availability, and waaaaay quieter. 🚁 #airtravel #aviation #mobility #verticalflight

Pre-booked, shared #aircraft on busy routes? Yes, they could. BLADE does it already with helicopters. "Ridehailing" with a cabin just for you? It's very unlikely it can get that cheap at least at the visible horizon: www.nationalacademies.org/event/848_02.... 🚁 #aviation #mobility #verticalflight
And, also, that there's no way they'll be price competitive.

To say nothing of the extremely limited operations they'll be able to offer, both in terms of frequency and location.
