More than a hundred years ago that the human being thinks of Flying cars. It seems to be a distant future, but it is not. The aerial vehicles They are getting closer.
When we think about the reality of transport in the Argentine Republic It seems to be a farthest activity, but the truth is that these vehicles have already begun their operation in different places on the planet. As has always happened, the Technologies are always one step ahead of regulations. But this time the modifications introduced in the Bases Law on the feasibility of non -manned aircraft flight has given the initial kick for the activity.
What do we talk about when we talk about Air taxis? It seems that we refer to helicopters. But the truth is that the future of urban mobility is in heaven.
The drones They gave the initial kick, but this new class of vehicles (Evtols) have the capacity to transport passengers in short distances and mainly in urban nuclei.
But like any new activity, it requires social acceptance. Imagine being able to fly to our work or home. Without interruptions, without street cuts a simple flight to optimize one of the most precious goods, our time. Let’s see that we talk in three simple concepts: the Evtol, how will they operate and regulatory needs.
What are the Evtols
Are electric flying vehicles with the ability to transport passengers and merchandise in reduced pathsdesigned for cities. These vehicles can be manned or not. A true air taxi or a flying car.
This aerial vehicle model leads us to think about the concept of Urban air mobility. That futuristic concept that we see in the films and that today begins to be a reality in some places on the planet.
But can these vehicles fly freely on us? Let’s think of heaven as a finite resource, because the air transit It requires true order To avoid air collisions.
The European Union He has been working hard on the concept of urban air mobility and Evtols. The graph of the projections on how since how much is expected that these vehicles fly is graphically sufficiently to show the sky as a finite resource.
In this first graph we see the planned flight height, to avoid collisions with another kind of aircraft.
Airplanes 2
In this second graph, we see that vehicles are not expected to fly freely, but on default routes operated and monitored by a distance operator.
But we also see in these graphs the introduction of a new figure. The VERTIPORTS presented in the graph and as indicated by its name are vertical airports where these vehicles can anodize.
While it seems a distant reality for Argentina, the truth is that these vehicles are already marketed and already fly mainly in China.
Argentina has taken an important step by modifying in the BASE LAW The Aeronautical Codeallowing the Unmanned aircraft operation. However, the challenge is presented in the debate of the Urban air mobility and its social acceptance. The second challenge is regulatory character Not only in the flight operation, but also in the Compatibilization of landing structures internationally.
The operation of these vehicles is not a distant reality, preparing the required regulatory framework is necessary at the local level so that the technologies are not always ahead of the regulations.
