EP52 – Does the Wisk Air Taxi Vision Actually Make Sense? Plus: Boeing News & Helicopter Safety Tech

from STRUCK: An Aerospace Engineering & Lightning Protection Show · host Allen Hall

In this episode we discuss Boeing’s new 737 MAX troubles – the FAA has grounded planes from 16 customers due to an electrical issue. We also dive into helicopter lightning protection and look into the safety records of rotocraft: just how safe are helicopters in 2021, and should we trust them in light of recent high profile crashes the likes of which took the life of Kobe Bryant and Olivier Dassault? Lastly, Wisk has released a white paper on the future of air taxis, using data from surveyed commuters. Does the autonomous air taxi really have a realistic chance of becoming reality? We discuss.
