At SXSW, personal air transport seems inevitable. But who will have access?
Room for how many? A cabin prototype for the eVTOL, the proposed personal air transportation from Eve, and one of the topics of the discussion at the Urban Air Mobility: What's Next? panel at SXSW
At SXSW’s “Urban Air Mobility” presentation from Eve Air Mobility and their corporate and civic associates, the perennial flying-car promise is renewed – or perhaps re-animated for our current tech and social environment, appearing now in the still-aspirational guise of some mighty snazzy Electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing vehicles.
Orlando’s Shepard was there, because the Disney-pumped tourist mecca has, for one thing, long been air-trafficked with helicopters and is gung-ho about moving into a more robust and electric-thus-supposably-sustainable phase of skybound urban transportation. Blakey brought her decades of trenches-toiling for the regulatory FAA to bear on the topic of safety and practical applications.
