PLANA, a developer of Hybrid advanced air mobility (AAM) eVTOL, is joining forces with OneSky, a leading uncrewed aircraft systems traffic management (UTM) solution provider to participate in OneSky’s Future of Flight program.
OneSky’s Future of Flight program is a cooperative ecosystem of industry leaders and innovators that allows partners to come together to shorten the time it takes to get to scalable operations. Currently, more than 20 companies are participating in the program, including Skyports and Volatus, as well as Echodyne, a radar developer, and Supernal, Hyundai’s UAM US subsidiary.
The two companies plan to create synergies by combining OneSky’s airspace situational awareness, flight planning and simulation, UTM/UATM solutions with PLANA’s expertise in developing and manufacturing hybrid-electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. In addition, they plan to verify the operational concept of PLANA’s CP-01 aircraft under development, refine the technical roadmap by coordinating technical requirements, explore solutions to AAM industry regulations in various countries, and discover business models.
Minyoung Ahn, PLANA CSO and co-founder said, “For safe and efficient aviation of AAM aircraft, it is necessary to utilize UTM functions for automation and long-term processes including VFR. We expect to be able to acquire various technologies and know-how related to AAM aircraft operation through this cooperation.”
