• Autonomy is a long-term objective for many eVTOL developers.

    The transition may include:
    • Pilot-operated early flights
    • Assisted automation systems
    • Remote monitoring capabilities
    • Gradual regulatory approval for higher autonomy levels

    A phased approach helps balance innovation with safety and public confidence.

  • Full autonomy is often associated with the future of eVTOLs.

    But the transition won’t be immediate.

    Early operations will likely combine pilot oversight with increasing levels of automation.

    Step-by-step validation will matter more than speed.

    In aviation, confidence grows gradually — and autonomy will follow the same path.
