The working groups will complement other NASA and industry efforts, including the UAM Grand Challenge series. Through them, the organization aims to align on UAM terminology, challenges, barriers, and solutions; develop a NASA-curated “book of requirements” for UAM technology, systems, and operations; and support discussions of regulatory and standards development activities, among other goals.

Participants will also “receive consistent updates regarding the current state of the UAM ecosystem, allowing them to determine where they can provide the best value to their organizations and industry,” NASA says.

Leonardo extends its training services capabilities to rotorcraft unmanned aerial systems

2020-03-292020-11-19 Vincenzo 1 min read

Leonardo is extending its training services capabilities to include rotorcraft unmanned aerial systems (UAS) to provide 360° training solutions to its growing customer base for maximised mission effectiveness and safety. The Company has recently obtained an Authorized Training Organization Certificate for UAS released by ENAC (Italian National Civil Aviation Authority). With this certification Leonardo is now able to supply training services for light and very light category remotely piloted systems (up to 25 kg) through its Helicopter Training Academy headquartered in Sesto Calende (Northern Italy).
This certification heavily adds to the overall quality level and versatility of training services provided by Leonardo, making the Company the world’s first rotorcraft OEM with this capability – it is expected to be recognised by EASA in 2021. This latest service addition allows Leonardo to respond to the evolving market demands by those helicopter operators who are increasingly using small UAS for their missions, including those carrying out disaster relief and emergency response tasks.
