Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) vehicle and airspace technologies promise large increases in the number of aircraft in operation. One critical technology for these emerging markets is the increased use of automated systems to reduce pilot skill, training, and proficiency requirements. While the use of these systems promises to reduce or eliminate pilot functions in the long-term, the technology development for the required functions will necessitate a phased transition. The transition to, and adoption of automated systems will generate new safety challenges. This presentation discusses current safety challenges, new challenges for eVTOLs, and some research focused on addressing these challenges.
