Rotorcraft systems for urban air mobility: A reality check [PDF]

open access: yesThe Aeronautical Journal, 2020
ABSTRACT“Urban air vehicles” have been hailed as the next revolution in aviation. Prototypes of various sizes have been flown to demonstrate basic flight (hover and climb), but in most cases there is no demonstration of full flight capability, for example conversion from vertical to level flight (conversion corridor).
