A traffic engineering model for air taxi services

Transportation Research, Part E: Logistics and Transportation Review, 2008
Abstract We propose a single-provider model for on-demand air taxi services. Data from a discrete-event model support a “flow model,” which describes the aggregate flow of passengers and aircraft for an air taxi service provider without specifying event-level operation. Using a set of hypothetical scenarios for air taxi network operation, we evaluate

ATEFA PROJECT'S RESULTS ON UAM AIR TRAFFIC NOISE AND AIR-TAXI CERTIFICATION

Inter-Noise 2022, 2022
ATEFA, Germany's first nationally funded research project on UAM community noise, aimed to provide first answers, how novel air traffic noise from air-taxis can be assessed in a realistic scenario. Two eVTOL air-taxi systems - diverse in design and acoustics - and one regional sVTOL were acoustically described and implemented in a traffic scenario ...

Noise prediction for urban air taxi operation

INTER-NOISE and NOISE-CON Congress and Conference Proceedings, 2021
Solutions to escape crowded streets are increasingly taking up new forms of mobility. This also includes air taxis or VTOLs. In addition to passenger traffic, suggestions, such as parcel delivery by drones, are also regularly part of future visions. Air taxis pose additional safety requirements due to the transport of people and they also represent a ...

Mortality Risk in a Birth Cohort of Commuter Air Carrier and Air Taxi Pilots

Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 2003
Commuter and air taxi pilots have higher work-related death rates than most other occupational groups. In this longitudinal study, the authors examined the mortality in a cohort of 3263 commuter and air taxi pilots. With adjustment for age, proportional hazards modeling revealed that termination or downgrading of medical certificates during the 11-year
