Building Airpad for McFly.Aero
0 likes247 views
The document discusses developing a standard landing pad called an "airpad" for air taxis. It proposes engaging helipad engineering firms to design an airpad that can be used across the industry as a standard and potential business opportunity. Key considerations for the airpad design include functionality, use cases, types and locations of installations, and regulatory requirements. The goal is to create a draft design, get feedback from firms, and finalize the design of an industry standard airpad.

- 1. Lets Develop A Standard Airpad for Air Taxi Industry Dimitri Popov CBDO McFly.Aero !1
- 2. What is McFly.Aero A professional organization building infrastructure, community and software for the future industry of air taxi, similar to Uber.Elevate. One of the key components of the infrastructure is a standard landing pad for air taxi - we call it airpad. !2
- 4. How to Fit Airpads Into A Helipad? 20 meters 6 meters !4
- 9. Airpad Project: Objective Engage helipad engineering 鍖rms across the world into designing a standard Airpad for the air taxi industry so that it becomes a standard and a franchising opportunity for these 鍖rms !9
- 10. Tactics Create a draft of Airpad blueprint Distribute with engineering/design 鍖rms Have them sign up for Consortium membership Receive and summarize their feedback Implement in 鍖nal airpad design !10
- 11. Feedback Includes Usecases Functionality Types & Locations: high-rise and ground-level, etc. Legal: certi鍖cation, insurance, tra鍖c rules !11
- 12. Airpad Usecases REGULAR Landing and passenger o鍖- boarding Passenger embarkment and takeo鍖 Re-parking Cargo load/unload IRREGULAR Emergency landing Fire (including battery) Extreme weather conditions Birds and 鍖ying garbage Towing Carwash !12
- 13. Airpad Functionality Battery under each landing pad and charging system Wind protection, wind sensors WiFi and other M2M data from diagnostics One or two stairs and an elevator for cargo and the disabled Fire protection system Standard urban cargo crate Landing sensors and graphics, landing automation Waiting area (weather- and noise-proof) Surveillance: video, infrared, ultrasound Carwash/cleaning? !13
- 14. Landing Navigation Satellite: GPS (US) - (3) Glonass (Russia) - (3) Galileo (EU) - (3) Beidou (Chinese) - (3) Local: radio marker - dubbed (1), graphic/optical (2) (X) - Priority !14
- 15. Key questions Can airpad comply with helipad requirements? Can helipad and airpad be same thing? Can we get a database of helipads/heliports around the world with engineering 鍖rms supporting them? Can a regular airport provide quick boarding from an air taxi to a local 鍖ight? !15
