The words we choose matter. This Halloween, our COO, Bill D., was reminded of the power of two simple words: “Thank You.” In a world often marked by division, these moments of civility and connection show us what’s possible when we come together. As you enter into the weekend, take some time to read his reflections on community, connection and the next generation’s vision for a brighter future.

UAM & eVTOL CAN SUCCEED WITH THE RIGHT ENTERPRISE SUCCESS ALGORITHM :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Undoubtedly, electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing ("eVTOL") vehicles will add a new and exciting category of air transportation operating within the National Airspace System ("NAS") governed by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA"). The operating cost per/hour coupled with the necessity to recoup heavy upfront aircraft development, airworthiness certification and manufacturing facility buildout costs dictates that a fiscally responsible enterprise initially cannot charge the price of an Uber/Lyft ride and expect to turn a profit ... especially when passenger seating is limited to a 4-6 person capacity. Per trip, that would generate between $120 to $300 per eVTOL short shuttle load which is insufficient to service debt + payback obligations to investors/shareholders + run day-to-day operations + expand. Akin to the rollout of cellular in 1983, pricing for eVTOL flight service must initially be high and therefore affordable by the richer and more affluent. Even to this day, how many middle income people take a helicopter to the airport versus a taxicab, car or subway train? [THE GOOD NEWS: THERE IS A PATH TO SUCCESS IN THE eVTOL INDUSTRY!] As an avid cheerleader for and subject matter expert on the Urban Air Mobility ("UAM") market and the eVTOL technology behind it (aerospace vehicle design, navigation, wireless telecommunications, AI, network, IoT, safety systems and etcetera), my partners and I will be speaking out more on educating the public, regulators and industry on what it will take to ensure all around success and heavy profitability like we experienced in the development of the domestic public cellular telephone industry which continues to thrive and grow at an astronomical rate. Archer is but one of dozens of eVTOL developers that includes Joby Aviation, Wisk, and others. No matter how much money institutional and public investors pour into any particular eVTOL company there is no guarantee for success except for those who do not ignore the factors for success and lessons learned by their emerging technology predecessors.

Joint Special Operations University USSOCOM Doowan Lee Christian J. Ramthun this is the type of thinking missing at USSOCOM and Joint Special Operations University. US SOF neither recruits, knows how to manage, or properly employ such an array of available capabilities. Instead, risk adverse PME and thinking grooms SOF leaders to default to training for the perfect raid. Leaders focused on the perfect raid will never inspire the writing of "The Moon is Down" or advocate for such attacks in the cognitive space. US SOF needs to focus on the uncomfortable and not rest on the laurels of high profile raids that were stunning tactical successes with no lasting strategic effect
