Partnership to develop vertiports and landing zones for advanced air mobility network in South Florida

This partnership aims to establish a regional advanced air mobility (AAM) network in South Florida by developing vertiports and landing zones. Vertical Aerospace is collaborating with infrastructure specialists including UrbanV, Signature Aviation, Skyports Infrastructure, and Vertiports by Atlantic Aviation to evaluate potential sites. The collaboration signifies a concerted effort to build the necessary infrastructure for AAM, paving the way for future commercial operations of electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft in the region. The partnership is notable due to the involvement of key players across the AAM ecosystem. Vertical Aerospace, an eVTOL aircraft developer, is partnering with established infrastructure developers like Skyports and Signature Aviation, indicating a comprehensive approach to addressing both aircraft and ground infrastructure needs. While the financial details remain undisclosed, the collaboration's focus on South Florida, a region with high population density and tourism, suggests a strategic focus on a potentially lucrative market for AAM services.
