How will autonomous air taxis fly when there's no pilot on board? 🤔 As a Third-Party Service Provider (TSP), SkyGrid's ground-based system bridges the gap. From coordinating air traffic to providing weather reports, TSPs give remote pilots and aircraft operators eyes in the sky, even when they aren't physically in the aircraft. Check out the new blog post in our TSP 101 series, where we explain why TSPs are a crucial component to enabling autonomy in Advanced Air Mobility (AAM). 🔗 https://hubs.ly/Q02W-3160 #SkyGrid #AAM #TSP #AutonomousFlight

What will autonomous flight look like in 10 years? In the latest AAS newsletter, Jia Xu talks about the positive social and economic impacts that autonomy will bring, like greater accessibility and safety. But what challenges will need to be overcome in order to achieve this vision? Read pages 4-8 to find out.   #SkyGrid #AAM #TSP #AutonomousFlight

Happy Halloween from SkyGrid! 🎃👻 As we navigate the world of AAM, technology, and innovation, we're reminded that sometimes the spookiest challenges are the biggest opportunities. #SkyGrid #AAM #HappyHalloween

SkyGrid is proud to support Wisk and the Federal Aviation Administration‘s William J. Hughes Technical Center in leading research for the seamless integration of remotely supervised flight into the #NAS. As a Third-Party Service Provider (TSP), we’re contributing to innovative work by enabling seamless data flow for Wisk’s simulation activities, assessing how remotely supervised eVTOL aircraft like Wisk’s Generation 6 can safely operate under current IFR alongside air traffic control. This partnership brings us one step closer to a future where autonomous flight becomes an everyday reality. Together, we’re developing potential solutions for safe, efficient, and innovative airspace integration. #SkyGrid #Wisk #FAA #TSP #AAM

How do we gain public acceptance for autonomous air mobility? Our CEO, Jia Xu, joined an expert panel at Honeywell's AAM Summit to discuss the opportunities and challenges. From creating relatable messaging to ensuring community engagement, building public trust is key to accelerating AAM’s path to reality. 🚀 Highlights Include: 1️⃣ Breaking down complex technologies into familiar concepts to increase comfort and understanding. 2️⃣ Using storytelling to highlight the benefits and appeal of autonomous aviation. 3️⃣ Engaging communities early to ensure new tech is socially relevant and inclusive. 🔗 Read more: https://lnkd.in/g_mha7u5 #SkyGrid #AAM #Innovation #NewTechnology
