Advanced Air Mobility (AAM)

Q1: What is Advanced Air Mobility (AAM)?
Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) is an emerging air transportation system that uses innovative aircraft and technologies—most notably electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) vehicles—to move people and cargo more efficiently. Designed to serve both urban and remote areas, AAM aims to reduce travel times, improve accessibility, and revolutionize how we connect cities and regions. It plays a critical role in applications like recreational aerial experiences, logistics, and specialized services, offering a faster, cleaner, and more flexible alternative to traditional ground transport.

Q2: Who can use AAM services?
A: AAM services are primarily developed for business, government, and recreational users—not for personal ownership. Individuals can enjoy AAM through recreational flights and tourism experiences.
 

Recreational and Tourism Applications (Crimson S8 PAV)

Q3: What is Crimson S8?
A: The Crimson S8 is a single-seat ultralight aircraft designed to comply with FAA Part 103 regulations. It's built for recreational flying with no license, registration, or certification required—offering a lightweight, safe, and exciting way to experience personal flight.
 

Q4: Do your AAM flights comply with FAA regulations?
A: Yes. Our recreational AAM services operate under FAA Part 103 regulations for ultralight vehicles. This means our aircraft are designed to meet strict limits on weight, fuel capacity (or battery power), and speed, and are intended for daytime, single-occupant recreational use in uncontrolled airspace.
 

Q5: What is FAA?
A: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is the U.S. agency that oversees all civil aviation. It sets safety rules, certifies pilots and aircraft, manages air traffic, and regulates drones and ultralight aircraft like those under Part 103.

Q6: What is FAA Part 103?
Part 103 is an FAA regulation that allows single-occupant ultralight aircraft to be flown for recreational purposes—no license, registration, or certification required, as long as safety rules are followed.
 

Q7: Do I need a pilot's license to fly Crimson S8 vehicle? Is it safe?
A: No. One of the benefits of FAA Part 103 is that no pilot certificate, medical exam, or aircraft registration is required— as long as the vehicle and flight operations comply fully with the Part 103 criteria. Safety briefings and basic operational training may still be provided by the operator.


Logistics and Delivery Services (Pegasus Mobility System – LAV)

Q8: How is AAM revolutionizing logistics?
A: AAM vehicles—especially cargo drones and autonomous eVTOLs—can transport goods quickly across cities, bypassing traffic and reaching areas that are remote or congested. They’re used in medical supply delivery, e-commerce, industrial logistics, and disaster relief.
 

Q9: What types of cargo can AAM vehicles carry?
A: AAM logistics vehicles can carry anything from small packages (under 10 kg) to medium-sized freight (up to several hundred kilograms), depending on the aircraft model. High-value, time-sensitive, or hard-to-deliver items are ideal.
 

Q10: Can AAM be used in last-mile delivery?
A: Yes. Drones and compact AAM aircraft are ideal for last-mile delivery in densely populated or hard-to-navigate environments, especially when ground access is limited.
 

Customized and Specialized Applications (SeaArcher – CAV)

Q11: What are some examples of customized AAM applications?
A: AAM is being customized for various use cases, such as:

• Air Ambulance Services – Rapid transport of patients or medical supplies.

• Firefighting & Disaster Response – Aerial monitoring and supply drops.

• Infrastructure Inspection – For bridges, power lines, pipelines, and more.

• Agriculture & Environmental Monitoring – Crop surveys and wildlife tracking.
   

Q12: How does AAM integrate with urban infrastructure?
A: Cities are developing vertiports (takeoff/landing hubs), charging stations, and digital air traffic systems to support AAM. These allow seamless integration into existing transport systems and city planning.
 

Regulation and the Future

Q13: Who regulates AAM operations?
A: National aviation authorities such as the FAA (U.S.), EASA (Europe), and CAAS (Singapore) are actively shaping regulations for vehicle certification, pilot licensing, autonomous flight, and airspace use.
 

Q14: When will AAM become widely accessible for recreation and logistics?
A: Commercial AAM services are expected to scale gradually from 2025 through the 2030s. Early use will focus on cargo and tourism in controlled environments, expanding to broader regions as infrastructure and public acceptance grow.

Q15: How can companies get involved in AAM?
A: Businesses can partner with aircraft developers, invest in vertiport infrastructure, or explore AAM for niche services like emergency response, or high-value logistics.
