Advanced Air Mobility or AAM includes a wide range of aircraft with Advanced capabilities connect
people and cargo more easily to make this reality NASA is working with industry and the FAA to
develop advanced airspace management technologies
one area the NASA team is researching is future airspace design
NASA's Advanced Air Mobility mission is working to map out highways in the sky
for the future airspace where existing aircraft and new aircraft will communicate clearly and fly
safely in harmony at NASA we are collaboratively developing and testing in the field advanced Air
traffic management technologies that will allow new and current aircraft to safely and efficiently
fly the way they want to fly we work with partners to jointly test these new technologies
at our state-of-the-art simulation facilities before we take them out to the field for testing
we can evaluate many aspects of the air traffic management system which includes high fidelity
simulations of how our futuristic air traffic management system interacts with new and
current aircraft we are developing the system with industry and the FAA so early feedback and years
of testing and evaluation will ensure we have addressed safety and operational considerations
a future air traffic management system will be more digitally connected to improve the
flow of information for improved coordination and the use of advanced technologies to enable
this routine airspace access for a wide range of vehicles both current and new I'm excited to be
part of transforming our air transportation management system to improve the way that
we move throughout the country for passengers movement and goods and improve our communications
