ENR 8.6 Advanced Air Mobility

1.. General

1. Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) is a rapidly-emerging, new sector of the aerospace industry which aims to ­safely and efficiently integrate highly automated aircraft into the NAS. AAM is not a single technology, but ­rather a collection of new and emerging technologies being applied to the aviation transportation system, ­particularly in new aircraft types. Notional AAM use-cases include Urban Air Mobility (UAM), Regional Air ­Mobility (RAM), public services, large cargo delivery, and private or recreational vehicles.
2. UAM and RAM are subsets of AAM activities occurring in urban environments.
