It was a true honor to testify before Congress this past March to shape the future of aviation, and to advocate for communities!
To inform the FAA bill, advanced air mobility expert Clint Harper testified on the importance of including communities’ voices when integrating new entrants into the air space. Now introduced, the Securing Growth and Robust Leadership in American Aviation Act will do just that!

Buttigieg is talking about the epidemic of traffic deaths and notes by comparison the years of zero passenger airline crash fatalities: "It's not luck. It's the FAA"

Similarly, many airports today are surrounded by disadvantaged communities. These communities bear the greatest burden of aviation's negative externalities, yet often cannot access aviation's benefits. The #advancedairmobility industry must break this trend to scale.
Powerful interactive @nytimes story today about the destruction wrought by urban highways. "The United States chooses to force highways through communities with the least political power to resist." nytimes.com/interactive/2022…
"…we quickly realized that there were way too many parking lots in the real world and that our game was going to be really boring if it was proportional in terms of parking lots."
Weekend reminder that SimCity's creators couldn't accurately reflect the scale of urban parking lots because if they did the game fell apart. theatlantic.com/technology/a…

A defining moment that led me to Urban Planning & Design was when satellite imagery first became available on the internet in the early 2000's... I remember how disappointed I was with how much area in our cities were parking lots that were 75% empty.

And just this week there is talk in my home town about redeveloping the local fair grounds because the demand for land is so high... yet many of our downtown parking lots continue to sit 75% empty.

The US House of Representatives passed the Advanced Aviation Infrastructure Modernization Act. "This type of planning is critical to maximizing the benefits of AAM while minimizing any negative impacts," said @Clint831, our UAM Fellow, to @halldalegroup. halldale.com/articles/20011-…
It wasn’t more than 7 years ago that I contemplated leaving aviation for a more inclusive & community focused industry. It is so heartwarming to see how many efforts have emerged to tackle diversity & inclusivity issues head on. Thanks for sharing @DarrellAviation! #diversiflite

Urbanism is obsessed with quantitative data like population growth rates, median house prices & transit wait times. But the true indicators of great cities— joy, racial harmony, stewardship, hope, belonging, connection to the land etc.—are often qualitative, embodied & sacred.

I often hear how all eVTOLs will eventually all look very similar, as the case with large airliners, because that’s what has proven to work. For what works, all we need to do is look at nature. Just in the last week, I’ve seen shapeshifting wing concepts, and now this…

Somewhat recently, western innovators have recognized this more widely and slapped the term “biomimicry” on it and have been praised for their “new” insights. I do worry, maybe unfairly, that the foundation of humility and respect is missing…

All that’s said, this made me smile. Sure, there are many questions to be answered if this kind of design were to be proven safe and efficient. I’m sure some aeronautical engineers are picking this apart. Ideas like this have to start somewhere. I’m curious to see this evolve.

Will your innovations still be relevant if you’re disabled? Will your loved ones use AAM to access essential needs? We have an opportunity to make aviation more inclusive than ever and it starts with thinking about #IDEA! Or we can deliver fast food. Thanks for this @VTOLsociety!
Attn: engineering students! Today is the International Day of Disabled Persons #IDDP. We need Inclusion, Diversity, Equity & Access (#IDEA) to overcome the toughest challenges in vertical flight. Can you design an accessible #eVTOL #airtaxi? vtol.org/sdc #DiversiFlite

Turns out @WhisperAero can't keep *everything* quiet. Thanks to @ian__villa and @MarkMooreNASA for telling me a bit more about their secret project, and the Crossville Chamber for keeping up its YouTube channel. evtol.com/features/whisper-j…
