The business models for commercial eVTOL aircraft operations, carrying either passengers or freight, typically envisage large numbers of vehicles making high volumes of flights each day. At face value, thousands of new aircraft types potentially flying hundreds of thousands of hours in short bursts and with multiple takeoffs and landings will equate to a massive maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) task that the new wave of operators will need to be ready to handle from day one.
Robotic Skies is seeking to undertake this mission, which would expand the scope of the support it is providing to multiple commercial drone operators. Last month, the U.S. company received an undisclosed amount of strategic investment from Hearst Ventures that founder and CEO Brad Hayden told FutureFlight will support its efforts to expand in the fast-growing advanced air mobility (AAM) sector.
