This book seeks to bridge disciplinary and scholarly gaps by bringing together a range of social science studies to capture state-of-the-art advancements in the field of advanced air technology governance, as the vision for the future of aviation systems evolves.
With novel and innovative developments taking place in many different technological fields, the future of aviation is at a pivotal point. Advanced air technologies including drones, Electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing vehicles, and electric/hydrogen-fuelled Conventional Take-Off and Landing aircraft could transform how we live, move, and transport goods. What we call 'Future Flight' encompasses a complex range of legal, social, economic, cultural and environmental issues that cut across a diverse range of sectors, stakeholders and disciplines. This book discusses the transformative nature of emerging advanced air technologies through an inter- and cross-disciplinary lens, with chapters covering law, economics, geography and accessibility, alongside other relevant issues that look beyond conventional methodologies and traditional disciplines.
The book will be of interest to academics, practitioners, policy makers, regulators and those stakeholders working at the intersection of law, policy and governance of emerging technologies, science, the environment and the economy.
