Advanced Air Mobility Special Interest Group

Special interest group

What Is The Advanced Air Mobility Group?

The ADS Advanced Air Mobility Special Interest Group (AAM SIG) is made of ADS members and stakeholders involved in the development and commercialisation of new, environmentally friendly, air transport system concepts, or looking to break into those emerging markets. These normally involve new aircraft designs and technologies, such as electrical Vertical Take-Off and Landing (eVTOL) vehicles, or autonomous systems. 

What Is The Purpose Of The Group?

The group aims to establish the UK as a world-leading location for the development and delivery of Advanced Air Mobility solutions – from the vehicles to the supply chain required, and the digital and physical infrastructure that will enable their operation. We bring together industry, and facilitate its relationship with government, regulators, and other important stakeholders, to shape this emerging market.

Through three dedicated workstreams on 1. Policy and Regulation, 2. Public Advocacy & Thought Leadership, and 3. Supply Chain Development, the group focuses on:

  1. Regulatory Maturity: we work closely with the UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) and other regulators, to shape a regulatory framework that enables UK products and services to be brought to a national and global market.
  2. Ecosystem Development: we foster an ecosystem of developers, infrastructure providers, regulators, operators, and investors where collaborative partnerships can be formed.
  3. Advocacy: we represent the interests of our AAM members in front of relevant decision makers, and contribute to building a positive image and perception of the sector.
  4. Market Strategy: we work to develop UK AMM strategic capabilities and define avenues to realise the potential of the market, all while demonstrating UK value-add and promoting the UK AAM offering to the global market.
  5. Export and BD: we understand and make links to global markets, identify use cases to support emerging business cases, and create awareness within relevant stakeholder communities.
