US eVTOL developer Wisk Aero has announced in a Linkedin post at it is partnering with the US Federal Aviation Administration’s William J. Hughes Technical Center for Advanced Aerospace to research safely integrating remotely supervised AAM operations in the National Airspace System (NAS).
“Building on our close collaboration with the FAA and the invaluable work of our partners at SkyGrid as Third Party Service Providers (TSPs), this research will help us assess how remotely supervised aircraft, including our Generation 6, can safely operate under current instrument flight rules (IFR) alongside air traffic control in an advanced simulation environment,” said the company post.
“In partnership with the FAA Tech Center, we’re utilizing leading-edge airspace simulation capabilities to conduct pilot-in-the-loop and controller-in-the-loop testing. This research supports potential solutions for safe integration of AAM operations in the NAS, unlocking new opportunities for safety and efficiency for all airspace users.”
