Title

Preparing for the Implementation of Advanced Air Mobility

Recommendation

Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) is a rapidly developing transportation system, comprised of new types of aircraft and emerging technologies, that has the potential to provide additional regional and local mobility options for passengers, air cargo and emergency services. It is anticipated that aspects of AAM will be commercially implemented within the next decade. Staff and consultant Peter Kirsch will present what the City of Newport Beach can do now to prepare, particularly what regulatory aspects should be considered, in advance of the local implementation of AAM.
