Urban Air Mobility Start-up Pushes for Lower-cost Training eVTOL Aircraft 'Operators'
Varon Vehicles is partnering with Paladin AI to tap machine learning and artificial intelligence to train a new breed of flight crew for eVTOL aircraft.
Varon Vehicles has confirmed its determination to take a new approach to training pilots who will operate eVTOL aircraft in the commercial services the company intends to launch in several South American cities. Earlier this week, the Colombia-based company signed a memorandum of understanding with Paladin AI for software it says will shorten the time needed to train pilots, reducing costs for aircraft operators.
Montreal-based Paladin AI provides “data-driven” training tools to flight-simulator manufacturers, airlines, and training providers. It claims these support competency-based training that can be integrated with existing training processes and equipment.
