A lots of useful info related to the City of Odense path to sustainable mobility, for instance using UAS Denmark Test Center as an important enabler.

->Archer (Adam Goldstein) focus on airport to city center (replacing 60-90 min ground to 5-10 min AAM). Midnight Aircraft designed to scale, learning from automotive, economical viable product. Pricing goal is a UBER to the airport price (120 USD pr person, fi Manhattan to JFK). Challenges expected: certifications of electrical power train. Expect to hit the market in 2025. Starts with maybe 12 vehicles, few routes. Scaling up step by step.

->Volocopter (Dirk Hoke ) optimised for cities, low noise level, Paris 2024. Focus on public acceptance. July start testing the type that will fly at Olympics: It’s still feasible. Pricing will depend landing fees, but Volocopter won’t meet taxi prices in the first 3 years. Olympic operation with partner ADP - routes have been chosen (traditional helicopter routes). Starter with only daytime operation.

->Lilium (Klaus Roewe) regional (6 seats) 175 km -> longer. Point to point rather connecting big cities. 8 years, flying in Spain own Testcenter . Won’t go with MVP - but straight to the real market product, 2025 market entry. Pricing aiming 3USD per pax/km. Lilium, a pure OEM, won’t be an operators. Payload and range are the most important when starting.

->Wisk (Brian Yurok): direct to autonomous (inter city, regions, 150 km), design for passengers but possible for cargo. Will wait for the others to pave the way. Count on being on the market by 2030. Pricing: markets determine price, we control only costs. Type certificate path for Autonomous is generally the same as for non-autonomous.. not impossible. VFR is not our problem, IFR from day one.
