Remotely piloted cargo eVTOL flies in New Mexico demonstration
打开原文新墨西哥州进行了首次eVTOL演示飞行,标志着美国在eVTOL领域试点计划的推进。此次飞行属于演示性质,未涉及正式适航认证,但为后续型号合格证和运行许可的申请提供了实践基础。
The US Department of Transportation has announced New Mexico’s first demonstration flight under the Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) Integration Pilot Program (eIPP). Led by the City of Albuquerque Aviation Department, New Mexico is the sixth location to launch under the Department’s initiative, following North Carolina in late September.
Last week, the City of Albuquerque Aviation Department and Reliable Robotics conducted a hybrid-electric demonstration flight at Albuquerque International Sunport to test cargo deliveries using Reliable’ s remotely piloted Cessna 208B Caravan airplane.
The City of Albuquerque Aviation Department and other eIPP participants are planning additional test flights throughout the rest of the year.
