Understanding MOSAIC and the Future of eVTOL Regulation with Katie Inman of Holland & Knight
Public Policy & Regulation attorney Katie Inman joined an episode of The eVTOL Insights Podcast to discuss the rapidly evolving regulatory landscape for Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) operations and electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. Recalling her experience at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), where she led major rulemaking initiatives for unmanned aircraft systems and novel aircraft products, Ms. Inman offers an insider perspective on how aviation policy is developed and why FAA rulemaking is often more complex, legally rigorous and time-intensive than stakeholders expect. The conversation also explores the significance of the Modernization of Special Airworthiness Certification (MOSAIC) rule and what to home in on in the FAA's recent eVTOL Integration Pilot Program (IPP) request for proposals, including an ambitious 90-day operational timeline and new waiver authorities that could help accelerate early operations.
