The Future of Flight in Advanced Air Mobility
L’avenir du vol dans la mobilité aérienne avancée

Panel Organized by: National Research Council of Canada

The urgent need for greener and sustainable transportation has catalyzed a transformation in aviation resulting in the development of Advanced Air Mobility (AAM). AAM aims to move cargo and people efficiently in regional areas with greater frequency using revolutionary zero-emission aircrafts. Canada’s unified vision has facilitated multi-lateral collaborations thus, accelerating innovation and advancing sustainable technologies.
The panel will discuss challenges the ecosystem is actively addressing and the benefits of AAM in Canada. Through viable operational use cases, the Canadian Advanced Air Mobility (CAAM) ecosystem addresses critical gaps to enable the implementation of AAM and to export capabilities positioning Canada as a world leader.

Le besoin urgent d'un transport plus écologique et durable a catalysé une transformation de l'aviation qui a abouti au développement de la mobilité aérienne avancée (MAA). MAA vise à déplacer les marchandises et les personnes dans les zones régionales avec une plus grande fréquence en utilisant des avions révolutionnaires à zéro émission. La vision unifiée du Canada a facilité les collaborations multilatérales, accélérant l'innovation et faisant progresser les technologies durables.
Le panel discutera des défis que l'écosystème relève activement et des avantages de MAA au Canada. Grâce à des cas d'utilisation opérationnelle viables, l'écosystème canadien de la mobilité aérienne avancée aborde les besoins critiques pour permettre la mise en œuvre de la MAA et l'exportation de capacités positionnant le Canada comme un leader mondial.
