Flying taxi lucky Russians in 10 years
Aerotaxi has not seemed to be something of a fantasy category for a long time. Many companies are working on the concepts of flying transport, which could deliver passengers from one part of the city to another in a short time. Such a service becomes particularly relevant in megacities, where traffic jams have become a regularity.
If you believe the forecast of Sergey Zhukov, co-head of the working group of the STI "Aeronet", in Russia "flying taxis" may appear by 2030, or even earlier. Today in the world there are 117 projects of such devices, and several of them belong to Russian designers, Zhukov told the agency RIA News.
In fact, a “flying taxi” is an autopilot device with electric traction, easy to learn and safer than the same helicopter. Such an aeromobile can use vertical take-off and landing, allowing it to land on the roof of the building or the shortest possible strip, which can easily fit in the city.
National Group technical Aeronet’s initiative was created to support promising projects, as well as to help develop the market for unmanned aerospace services in Russia. However, in his statement, S. Zhukov did not specify why the above-described innovation will appear in our country within 10 years and which domestic companies are developing the “flying taxi”.
