Why this petition matters

Started by Dan Sloat, JD/MBA

Something very exciting is happening - flying cars! Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) is the emerging aviation ecosystem that leverages revolutionary new aircraft and a broad array of innovative technologies to safely, quickly, affordably, and sustainably move people and goods among local destinations to connect communities underserved by existing modes of transportation. This revolution will impact everyone.

Vertiports are a neighborhood place for vertical takeoff. Advanced Air Mobility is founded on the principles of inclusivity and accessibility. To achieve this, vertiports must be built in every single community. Join us for the start of Generation Jetson (2022 - 2040).

AAM has the potential to save lives, fight fires, expedite emergency medicine, bridge social divides, preserve the environment, promote human rights, grow local economies, and inspire students to excel in STEM to become the workforce of the future. If we don't get the word out, we'll be stuck with outdated methods. To make sure AAM comes to fruition, we need public trust and that starts with public awareness.

Now is the time for full engagement among government, academia, industry, and communities. It's a lot to ask people to accept, let alone trust, new technologies if we haven't even taken the time to integrate technical jargon like 'vertiport' into our dictionaries for a common language. Signing this petition will build momentum to make vertiport Word of the Year for 2023 and help co-create a brighter path forward.
