In 2018, I was invited to be a speaker at a conference in the Midwest. Before I got on the stage to present my keynote, the session before me was talking about a new concept that I remember briefly hearing about as a student at Embry-Riddle, Advance Air Mobility (AAM). The speaker mentioned how AAM is the future of aviation, and that it will revolutionize air travel as we know it. AAM is known as the development, integration, and utilization of new airborne transportation systems, typically involving electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, drones, and other innovative aerial vehicles. These systems are designed to operate in urban, suburban, and rural environments. Since that conference in 2018, so many developments have transpired in this sector. Key Features of the AAM sectors include; eVTOLs: These are aircraft that can take off and land vertically like a helicopter but transition to forward flight like a plane, predominantly powered by electric propulsion.Urban Air Mobility (UAM): A subset of AAM focusing on urban environments. UAM seeks to alleviate ground traffic congestion by taking advantage of the airspace above cities.Decentralized Infrastructure: Instead of large central airports, AAM emphasizes smaller vertiports or landing pads scattered throughout urban and suburban areas.Autonomous Operations: While initial operations may have human pilots, the goal for many AAM solutions is to eventually operate autonomously, which will require advanced autonomous flight systems and robust air traffic management solutions. The AAM sector on a global scale was valued at $8.2 billion in 2022. It is expected to grow at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 20% by 2032 with a valuation to reach about $68.1 billion. Furthermore, investments in AAM have reached $4.8 billion in 2021, with new innovative companies launching each year in pursuit of the next successful eVTOL to hit the market. Specifically, there are over 200 companies globally in the race to develop eVTOL aircraft. The primary driver in the AAM sector is the Urban Air Mobility market which is projected to rise from 3.8 billion to 38.5 billion by 2030. In terms of women in this sector, McKinsey & Company shared on its blog this year how women are advancing in Future Air Mobility (FAM). Here are a few key points the blog shared. Sustainable aviation saw the biggest improvement in gender diversity, with the number of women and nonbinary people increasing from 13 percent to 18 percent.Other segments, including manned advanced air mobility/eVTOL vehicles and small drones, showed smaller gains.Companies that develop supersonic and hypersonic technology regressed, with the number of women and nonbinary people falling from 23 percent to 20 percent, although the small sample size means that the departure of a few senior leaders could sway the numbers in a meaningful way.Among regions, North America has the most diverse leadership teams in both gender (20 percent female or nonbinary) and ethnic diversity—defined as the non-majority group in a company's home country (18 percent).Technical roles have seen the biggest increase in diversity for both genders (going from 5 percent to 14 percent female or nonbinary) and people from ethnic minorities (going from 12 percent to 16 percent).Despite this progress, women and nonbinary people remain significantly underrepresented in technical roles at FAM companies, as they are in many other industries. Our special guest who will launch us into season five of the AVIATE with Shaesta podcast is Elan Head, a familiar voice in AAM. Elan is an award-winning journalist specializing in aviation and technology. Head currently serves as the Senior Editor at The Air Current and continues to be a respected journalist in the industry covering several developments and breaking news in AAM. Elan is a Commercial Helicopter Pilot and an FAA Gold Seal flight instructor with helicopter and instrument helicopter ratings. Elan joins us to share her unexpected start in aviation and how she turned her passion for flight and journalism into a career that she truly enjoys.

After a tumultuous two years it feels like the aviation industry is finally emerging from the shadow of the Covid crisis.But while the skies are getting busier, the recovery remains uncertain and uneven, especially in many parts of the world.What role then, can air traffic management play in helping secure the recovery but also in future proofing airport operations as traffic levels begin to return to what we used to think of as normal.Capacity, operational resilience and sustainability are all creeping back on the agenda and advancements in air traffic management, either in terms of airspace management or the deployment of new technologies, are almost uniquely placed to deliver against all those objectives, and usually for a fraction of the cost and time required for other capital investments.But what should the priorities be and what challenges remain?Ahead of the World ATM Congress, join us to hear about the latest developments in air traffic technology, why hybrid digital towers may be the next big thing, and how smarter arrivals management could save airports billions.

The Airports Authority of India successfully conducted a light trial using the GAGAN satellite navigation system for the landing of an ATR72 aircraft belonging to IndiGo at the Kishangarh Airport in Rajasthan last week.  GAGAN is a system jointly developed by the Airports Authority of India and the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) in collaboration with US defence contractor Raytheon at an estimated cost of Rs 774 crores. It provides a very accurate and high-level of satellite signals for precision air navigation over the entire Indian airspace, with the capability of expanding to nearby regions. It is capable of providing navigation services for departure, en-route and landing operations to equipped planes. The DGCA had issued a mandate, directing that all aircraft registered in India after July 1st 2021 to be fitted with GAGAN equipment.  Simply speaking, GAGAN is a Satellite Based Augmentation System or SBAS, which is a regional network of ground stations and satellites that provide GPS signal corrections, giving a better position accuracy.  GPS is the most prevalent Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) and is owned by the US government. GAGAN is the fourth such SBAS system that has been operationalised after the US' WAAS, European Union's EGNOS an d Japan's MSAS and it is interoperable with the other three.  The GAGAN system consists of 15 earth-based reference stations, two master control centres, three land uplink stations and three geostationary satellites. The reference stations gather GPS satellite data and the master control centres collect data from reference stations and create GPS correction messages.  Through this, errors caused by ionospheric disturbances, satellite orbit errors and inaccurate clocks are corrected. And through the uplink stations, the corrected messages are sent to the geostationary satellites which then broadcast them to the aircraft.   India is the first country in the Asia Pacific Region to trial indigenous SBAS for landing.  According to SV Satish, former executive director (Air Traffic Management), AAI, GAGAN opens a gateway for all airports to have low visibility approaches. It will bring down diversions, save fuel and boost efficiency. He says, GAGAN can serve smaller airports effectively, and older aircraft have to be upgraded with GAGAN receivers.  GAGAN will help airports which are currently devoid of precision approach capability equipment and have higher visibility requirements. It will reduce flight delays, save fuel, and improve flight safety. Now, aircraft will be able to land at airports not equipped with expensive Instrument Landing Systems, which include many small regional airports.  At present, IndiGo, SpiceJet, Air India, Go First and AirAsia India have aircraft that are capable of carrying out these satellite-based procedures. As GAGAN's footprint expands from Africa to Australia, India is in a position to offer its service to neighbouring countries.  Though primarily meant for aviation, GAGAN's capabilities can be utilised in many other user segments such as intelligent transportation, maritime, highways, railways, surveying and the telecom industry. GAGAN Message Service (GMS) can relay alerts to deep-sea fishermen, farmers, and disaster affected people at the time of natural calamities.  Watch video

What can Air Navigation Services Providers do to make aviation more sustainable? How does sustainability integrate with the historical mission of maintaining a safe and efficient flow of traffic? In this episode, we explore various initiatives and ways of working through which ANSPs can contribute to this important and required change:Network management to avoid having aircraft waiting while in the airA-CDM to reduce waiting time on the ground with engines runningFlexible Use of Airspace, to better share airspace between civil and military usersFree Route Airspace, both nationally and internationally, to let aircraft fly the most direct routesArrival Management, to reduce the time in holding patternsContinuous Descent Operations, to reduce fuel consumption and emissions during the approachRNP AR approaches, which save time by shortening the approach trajectories at airports with complex surroundingsUse of drones to check radionavigation installations

After a hiatus of 18 months, the World ATM Congress returns to Madrid at the end of the month, but what kind of show can we expect as the industry continues to feel the effects of the Covid crisis?   Despite encouraging signs of recovery, traffic levels remain far below pre-pandemic levels in many parts of world. Does that mean plans for expensive new technologies and ground based infrastructure should remain on ice for the foreseeable future, or is now the perfect time to invest?  One thing is certain, being able to maximise the efficiency of existing runways and airspace, accurately model future demand, and prolong the life and enhance the capability of existing airport assets is going to be critically important over the coming years as traffic does begin return.  So, join us for an analysis of the global Air Traffic Management market on the eve of its biggest conference and trade show. Discover how ‘one size fits all' digital towers are yesterday's thinking, how optimising runway delivery can help cash strapped airports make smarter use of what they've already got, and why true operational predictability may finally be within reach.  Panel:Jonny White, NATS Head of Product ManagementAndy Taylor, NATS Chief Solutions Officer, Digital TowersBen Sandford, NATS Intelligent Approach Product Manager

Resources   Mercatus Center   The Erosion of Publisher Liability in American Law by Brent Skorup and Jennifer Huddleston (Mercatus Center, 2019)   News Roundup   Zuckerberg, Facebook under mounting pressure over political ads   Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is set to meet with civil rights leaders this week after his company has maintained its policy to leave up political ads containing false statements by politicians. The company has applied the policy unevenly, first allowing Donald Trump to maliciously post an ad with false information about Joe Biden; then leaving up an Elizabeth Warren ad containing false information designed to illustrate the absurdity of Facebook’s ad policy.  During a hearing, Zuckerberg also admitted to Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez that if she were to place a false political ad, that the company would probably leave it up.    But Facebook is inexplicably removing false ads placed by Political  Action Committees. One notable example is an ad placed the Really Online Lefty League – ROLL – a Political Action Committee co-founded by Adriel Hampton – which falsely claimed that Lindsey Graham supports the New Green Deal. Hampton, an experienced marketing and political strategist, responded by filing to run for governor of California. Then gubernatorial candidate Hampton posted a false political ad and Facebook took it down, saying his campaign wasn’t legit—that it was just a ploy to place a false ad to see what Facebook would do. Even though Hampton says he fully expects to win the governorship, Facebook hasn’t reinstated the ad.   It’s a mess.   Top officials from the NAACP, National Urban League, and the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights are scheduled to meet with Zuckerberg this week to express their concerns with Facebook’s political ad policy, which the company now says has been extended to the UK.   Facebook sued for age, gender bias in financial services ads   A plaintiff in San Francisco filed a potential class action federal lawsuit last week claiming that Facebook discriminates against users based on age and gender in determining who can see financial services ads.  The lawsuit comes 7-months after Facebook agreed to tailor its platform to avoid discrimination on the basis of age, gender and zip code for job, credit, and housing ads.   US launches Tik Tok investigation   The Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) has launched a national security investigation into Tik Tok, which is owned by the Chinese firm Bytedance. A bipartisan cohort of lawmakers including Democrat Chuck Schumer, Republican Marco Rubio, and Tennessee Democratic Congressman Bart Gordon have all expressed concern about how the Chinese government uses TikTok’s data. TikTok’s growth has been outpacing the growth of incumbent social media companies in the U.S.     Snowden: Facebook as untrustworthy as the NSA   Whistleblower Edward Snowden, who is exiled in Russia for blowing the lid off the National Security Agency’s mass data collection practices six years ago, told ReCode’s Kara Swisher last week that Facebook is as untrustworthy as the NSA when it comes to privacy. But he didn’t limit his remarks to Facebook. He said that all tech companies are looking to exploit our personal data no matter the consequences. He also said that, on the surface, users may appear not to be concerned about how big tech companies handle their data but that, in reality, users are very concerned but feel powerless.   Five people shot and killed at Airbnb rental   Five people were shot and killed at an Airbnb rental Northern California during a Halloween party on Thursday. The rental listing on Airbnb prohibited parties and the renter claimed it was renting the space for family members who were suffering from smoke inhalation from the fires in the Los Angeles area. A witness reported to Buzzfeed that the shooting occurred with apparently no provocation. Airbnb has banned the renter from the platform.   China launches 5G network   Chinese officials announced last week that it would roll out 5G to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Hangzhou 2 months ahead of schedule. The country also announced plans to roll out 5G to over 50 cities by the end of this year. While U.S. telecom companies have begun their 5G roll-out, it’s largely been rolled out on higher frequency bands than the 5G service that’s being rolled out in China. The lower frequency bands that China’s using cover a larger surface area, while the higher frequency bands U.S. companies are using are more powerful but cover less ground.   Corey Booker introduces bill to ban facial recognition in public housing   Senator Corey Booker has introduced a bill to ban facial recognition in public housing. The Senator cites the disproportionate impact that facial recognition technology threatens to have on the nation’s most vulnerable communities. The No Biometric Barriers to Housing Act targets public housing that receives funding from the Department of Housing and Urban Development.   Apple pledges $2.5 billion for California affordable housing   Apple announced that it will invest $2.5 billion to address California’s affordable housing shortage. Some of those funds will be applied statewide. Others will be allocated for projects in the Bay Area. Three hundred million dollars will go towards affordable housing on Apple-owned property.   Following Katie Hill’s resignation, Democrats push for revenge porn law   Thirty-five democrats in Congress sent a letter to the House Judiciary Committee to pass a federal revenge porn law that would criminalize the nonconsensual posting of sexually explicit images online. The letter followed Congresswoman Katie Hill’s resignation from Congress after someone posted nude images depicting her and others as well as accusations that she was having inappropriate relations with campaign and congressional staffers. Hill blames her husband, whom she is in the process of divorcing, for posting the photos.     MIT president acknowledges discrimination against minorities and women on campus   Finally, Massachusetts Institute of Technology president Rafael Reif acknowledged last week that women and people of color often face exclusion and belittlement on campus and that it’s something the university is trying to improve. The development follows revelations of Jeffrey Epstein’s ties to the university.

Episode #16 features Karen DiMeo, Head of Policy and Government Affairs at GE Aviation’s AiRXOS. We explore unmanned aircraft systems traffic management (UTM) as the foundational stepping stone toward the next generation of integrated air traffic management, as well as the technical and regulatory challenges of having small drones, large piloted passenger drones, and conventional aircraft operating in the same airspace.

Few things spoil a visit to a majestic national park than the noise of helicopters and low-flying airplanes. Now the group Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility, or PEER, say their lawsuit has pushed the FAA to implement an air traffic management plan for national parks. PEER's Senior Counsel, Paula Dinerstein, joined the show to explain the suit.

Gudrun spricht in dieser Episode mit Colin Bretl und Niko Wilhelm. Beide sind zur Zeit des Gespräches Bachelorstudenten am Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT). Colin studiert Mathematik und Niko Informatik. Bevor sie sich für ein Studium am KIT entschieden haben, hatten sie an der Dualen Hochschule Karlsruhe (DHBW) ein Bachelorstudium Wirtschaftsinformatik abgeschlossen. Die beiden haben im Wintersemester 2018/19 an Gudruns Vorlesung Modellbildung teilgenommen. Wie schon in unserer ersten Podcastepisode besprochen wurde, gehört zum Programm der Vorlesung, dass die Studierenden sich in Gruppen finden, selbst ein Projekt suchen und bearbeiten. Colin und Niko haben die Arbeit von Fluglotsen betrachtet. Sie haben modelliert, wie die anfliegenden Flugzeuge am besten auf die Landebahn zugeteilt werden. Am Beispiel des Flughafens Heathrow (mit Daten vom 1. August 2018) wurde ihr erstelltes Modell getestet. Als mathematische Methode haben sie hierfür Warteschlangentheorie augewählt. Die beiden haben das Modell selbst erarbeitet, es programmiert und eine Ausarbeitung angefertigt. Die Podcastepisode zeigt, wie und warum sie ihr Problem gewählt haben und welche Schritte zum Erfolg (oder auch zum Misserfolg) geführt haben. Die Überwachung einer Flugbewegung durch Fluglotsen findet z.B beim Landeanflug auf einen Zielflughafen statt. Wollen mehrere Luftfahrzeuge in einem kurzen Zeitraum nacheinander landen, gehört es zu den Aufgaben des Lotsen, diese Reihenfolge festzulegen. Infolgedessen werden den einzelnen Luftfahrzeugführern Streckenanweisungen mitgeteilt (bspw. ob diese einmal oder mehrfach ein Warteschleife fliegen sollen). Im trivialen Fall, dass zwischen zwei ankommenden Luftfahrzeugen genug Zeit liegt, kann jedes Luftfahrzeug auf möglichst direktem Weg zur Landebahn geführt werden. Der Durchsatz, also wie viele Luftfahrzeuge in einem Zeitintervall landen können, ist in diesem Fall optimal. Bei hohem Verkehrsaufkommen gestaltet sich die Überwachung durch Fluglotsen schwieriger. Es müssen nicht nur Sicherheitsabstände zwischen den Luftfahrzeugen eingehalten werden, sondern auch physikalische Besonderheiten des Luftverkehrs und technische Restriktionen berücksichtigt werden. Diese wirken sich negativ auf den Durchsatz aus. Außerdem erschweren die Rahmenbedingungen eine mathematische Untersuchung. Im Projekt von Colin und Niko wird die Problemstellung nur für Flugzeuge, die durch Radar identifiziert werden können, betrachtet. Darunter fallen u.a. große Passagiermaschinen, wie sie an internationalen Verkehrsflughäfen vorzufinden ist. Solche Flugzeuge machen den größten Anteil an kontrollierten Flugbewegungen aus. Mit Hilfe des mathematischen Modells sollen die Grundlagen dafür geschaffen werden, verschiedene Lotsen-Strategien auf ihren Durchsatz hin zu untersuchen. Es konzentriert sich dabei zunächst auf das Standardanflugverfahren bei hohem Verkehrsaufkommen und geht davon aus, dass Flugzeuge in der Reihenfolge ihrer Ankunft landen dürfen. Wenn eine Landung nicht unmittelbar eingeleitet werden kann, müssen die Flugzeuge Standard-Warteschleifen fliegen. Die Warteschleife ermöglicht es, die Mindestgeschwindigkeit zum Fliegen aufrecht zu erhalten. Prinzipiell kreist ein Flugzeug in einer Warteschleife über einem festen Punkt. Mehrere Flugzeuge können in unterschiedlicher Höhe dieselbe Warteschleife nutzen. Für den Datensatz von Heathrow am 1. August 2018 stellte sich heraus: Zu Spitzenzeiten kommen 50 Flugzeuge pro Stunde an. In diesem Fall ist das System nicht stabil. Das bedeutet, die Lastspitze könnte im Modell nicht dauerhaft durchgehalten werden. Stabilität ist bei 38 Flugzeugen pro Stunde gerade noch so gegeben. Nach dem mathematischen Modell könnte der Flughafen Heathrow also 38 Flugzeuge pro Stunde abarbeiten, was fast dem Mittelwert über alle Anflüge am 1.8. 2018 zwischen 06:00 und 23:00 etwa entspricht (das waren im Datensatz 39,1).

A conversation with Michelle Eshow, Software Lead for Air Traffic Management at NASA’s Ames Research Center in Silicon Valley.

The rapid changes in technology as well as commercial and environmental pressures in Air Traffic Management are discussed. Dr Roberts also explores how these may impact on the human element of air traffic control and the implications this may have on safety.

Radio WAO (We Are One) Coming to you live from Costa Rica and brought to you by the La Reserva Forest Foundation (LRFF). We invite you to participate in this most interesting and interactive show by calling in or participating in the "green" chat room. LRFF is working to solve climate change and lost resources by restoring the tropical forests in the "lungs of the world".  This week our guest is Ben Sandzer-Bell, an amazing climate change entrepreneur. Ben founded CO2 Bambu in 2008 after 20 years as a global aerospace executive. He led a transatlantic initiative to improve Air Traffic Management technology using GPS satellites, leading to a dramatic reduction in flight time, and therefore jet fuel consumption, thus reaching a lower carbon footprint for the aviation industry.   Climate change is our continuing topic. It's being caused by human activity not volcanoes, solar activity or a universal conspiracy. This is a platform for everyone to tell us your views on cc, ask questions about this most important issue. The majority of people are very uninformed about cc because it has become unmentionable in the mainstream media.  Talking about it is the first step to solving it.  As always great roots and culture music plus interesting Caribbean news and events. See you all on Sunday noon, EST (12:00)  Give us a call, get involved!
