NASA Advanced Air Mobility National Campaign is researching the utility of electric vertical takeoff and land (eVTOL) advanced air mobility (AAM) instrument flight procedures. The result will be dynamic and tailored procedures that align to the following modus operandi: maximize safety, optimize efficiency, support passenger comfort and minimize acoustics. This is achieved through dynamic airspace procedure design, which is a modular approach to create an airspace construct that customizes procedures to vehicle design and configuration, operation and environmental conditions. The test plan supports different eVTOL platforms and envisioned operations for flight test or simulation and may be leveraged by AAM aircraft manufacturers and operators for any given aircraft, location and operation.
