The Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) Institute recently submitted a response to the Department of Transportation’s request for information (RFI) on “Integration of Powered Lift: Pilot Certification and Operations; Miscellaneous Amendments Related to Rotorcraft and Airplanes.”
According to the key author Jennifer Meszaros, “As the FAA continues to refine pilot training requirements and operational rules for powered-lift aircraft, there exists a significant opportunity to deepen engagement with key stakeholders in the powered-lift arena, including the U.S. Department of Defense and industry partners like GAMA and Leonardo. Amid intensifying geo-political competition, the need to prioritize cooperation, coordination, and consensus-building becomes ever more critical for driving development and enhancing competitiveness.”
“The DoD is the leader in the powered-lift space, supported by a robust contingent of industry manufacturers and suppliers. While the FAA may not have sufficient operational experience in key areas, such as IFR rules regarding lower weather minima prescribed, VFR/IFR operating limitations and weather requirements, SOE with only one set of controls, and training pipelines – that knowledge does exist. Leveraging local expertise and accelerating cooperation among industry players should be top priorities.”
Dan Sloat, Founder and President of the AAM Institute, expressed his gratitude to the contributors; “It is a real pleasure working with professionals like Jennifer Meszaros and Keith Sarich, who consistently and selflessly dedicate their time to further the mission of the Institute.”
