Bill Summary
To support Ohio's proposal to the Federal Aviation Administration related to the Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing and Advanced Air Mobility Integration Pilot Program.
AI Summary
This resolution enthusiastically supports Ohio's proposal to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to be selected as a site for the Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) and Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) Integration Pilot Program. eVTOL and AAM refer to new types of aircraft, often electric-powered and capable of vertical flight, that are intended for various uses like cargo delivery, medical transport, and passenger travel, aiming to integrate these into the national airspace. The resolution highlights Ohio's strong existing aviation ecosystem, its partnerships with industry and academia, and its development of airspace management systems as reasons why the state is well-positioned to lead in this emerging field, recognizing the potential for economic growth, research, and educational benefits for Ohio residents and the nation.
