buildings, critical system failures or loss of control, and hull loss. In the case of autonomous or remote-piloted aircraft, cybersecurity becomes a risk as well. The type of and volume of the noise caused by aircraft and rotorcraft are two leading factors regarding the public perception of eVTOL craft in UAM applications. Specific security concerns include the physical security of passengers in the absence of crew members and the cybersecurity of both the craft and the systems governing it. In regard to social equity, the high initial costs of UAM services could prove to be detrimental to public opinion, especially as the affordability of services and technologies is not guaranteed. In the NASA UAM Market Study, respondents with higher incomes were more likely to take UAM trips. An EASA survey showed that 83% of respondents had a positive attitude towards UAM, while 71% were ready to try UAM services. Projects underway include Lilium announcing to create the first U.S. vertihub in Orlando for its on-demand electric jet service and EHang created an UAM pilot program in Spain in the city of Seville.
669:, a vertiport is an identifiable ground or elevated area, that can be associated with various equipment and facilities, used for the take off and landing of tiltrotor aircraft and rotorcraft. The industry has used different terms for describing the various levels of equipment and sizes of these facilities. Vertipads are simple landing pads designed to be used by one aircraft at a time. Vertiports or vertibases can feature one or more Final Approach and Takeoff (FATO) and Touch-down and Lift-off (TLOF) areas, as well as several VTOL stands and other aircraft and passenger facilities. Vertihubs are larger aviation facilities serving the largest structure in the UAM environment. They can offer service ssuch as 616: 478: 50:(AAM) concept that includes other use cases than intracity passenger transport; NASA describes Advanced Air Mobility as including small drones, electric aircraft, and automated air traffic management among other technologies to perform a wide variety of missions including cargo and logistics. This is also supported by the drone market consulting firm Drone Industry Insights, who also includes vertiports into the definition of AAM and UAM. 633:
Sikorsky is developing MATRIX technology, while Honeywell is partnered with Pipistrel and other manufacturers to develop automatic landing systems for their respective aircraft. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning are necessary to develop autonomous craft, but pose a complication to certification because they are non-deterministic, i.e. they may behave differently given the same input in the same scenario.

actual airspace, delineations of air corridors, dynamic geofencing to maintain flight paths, weather avoidance, and route planning without continuous human monitoring. Airspace Link developed AirHub, a system to connect cities, states, drone operators, and the FAA into a single space to map out the safest routes for autonomous drones using publicly available flight data.

on defined corridors for UAM craft which must then abide by specific protocols when inside the corridor. EASA's regulatory approach leaves local decision to “local actors” and will instead seek to certify the aircraft themselves for safety. They developed the VTOL Special Condition to certify the specific class of aircraft that were previously undefined.

Governments around the world have begun debating changes to their airspace rules to accommodate high numbers of autonomous or semi-autonomous aircraft operating at low altitudes. NASA and EASA have proposed concepts for the requirements of a UAM system. NASA's concept of operations, or ConOps, relies

Advanced autonomous eVTOL fleets require management software to scale to profitable levels. Pilot training is costly and expensive, and pilots themselves take up much of an aircraft's payload. So many manufacturers are designing aircraft that can fly autonomously as automation technology improves.

Fly-by-wire systems translate a pilot's inputs into commands sent to an aircraft's motors, propeller governors, ailerons, elevators and other moving surfaces. They are essential in multirotor designs because human pilots cannot control multiple propellers without computer assistance. In June 2019,
