Integration in Action: EIPP Program Progress and What's Ahead

Aviation policy and regulatory attorney Katie Inman will moderate a panel at the AUVSI Drone & AAM Policy Symposium in Washington, D.C. Taking place at Nationals Park, the forum will explore the major developments affecting the drone and advanced air mobility (AAM) space, including implementation of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Reauthorization Act, additions to the Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) Covered List, and renewed attention to airspace control coordination and uncrewed systems policy. Katie's session will focus on the FAA's electric vehicle takeoff and landing (eVTOL) Integration Pilot Program (EIPP), a public-private partnership to test AAM use cases and inform safe and efficient AAM integration into U.S. airspace. Speakers will share updates from the states and operators participating in the program, including what they have learned so far and what policy and technical milestones will determine the pace of future integration.
