FAA Releases Vertiport Design Standards to Support the Safe …
Sep 26, 2022 · These Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL) operations will transport passengers or cargo at lower altitudes in rural, urban and suburban areas. The design standards include critical information that designers and builders will need …
Aluminum Vertiports- The future of green landing systems for eVTOL…
Aluminum vertiports are more than just landing pads; they are the gateway to a new era of urban transportation. They will provide safe and efficient landing and take-off zones for eVTOL and VTOL vehicles, enabling quick and convenient transportation within cities.
What are vertiports? These high-tech landing pads are for 'air taxis'
Oct 24, 2022 · All of these eVTOLs are going to need places to land and recharge, and that's where vertiports come in. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) just released design standards to keep vertiports safe and uniform.
Vertiports vs. Heliports: A closer look at vertical take-off and ...
Jun 2, 2024 · At the heart of vertiport design lies advanced infrastructure tailored to eVTOL operations: Compact landing pads optimized for the smaller footprint of eVTOLs; High-power charging stations to support the energy demands of electric aircraft; Automated maintenance facilities for routine upkeep and repair of eVTOL vehicles
Urban Air Mobility (UAM) concepts and technologies are set to revolutionize transportation systems. service vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft. Advisory Circular (AC) 150/5390-3 “Vertiport Design” was cancelled on July 28, 2010 due to lack of compatible aircraft use.
Siemens & Skyway design eVTOL landing pads - electrive.com
Jan 28, 2023 · As part of their collaboration, Siemens and Skyway are studying the energy requirements of vertiports and developing sustainable power supply solutions, standardised charging procedures and a higher-level system to support flight operations, according to Siemens.
Infrastructure barriers to the elevated future of mobility
Viable electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft alone won’t elevate the new mobility ecosystem. Cities and suburbs will need infrastructure on the ground and over the airwaves: landing sites, aircraft traffic management systems, and more.

We create custom-built small and midsize landing structures for residential or commercial clients, consisting of one or more takeoff and landing areas and charging. We retrofit existing structures such as helipads, parking garages and corporate office rooftops to cater for eVTOL vehicles, charging and access.
The Hybrid vertiport design has one landing/take-off pad, and two/three staging areas. The eVTOL first lands on the landing/take-off pad, then travels to one of the empty staging areas. At the staging area, passengers disembark, maintenance and battery swapping are completed, and new passengers embark. Then,eVTOL travels back to the landing ...
