Today’s technological environment is enabling high-speed aerial transportation to be intermixed with traditional commercial aviation. This integration will require close attention to operational performance and efficiency, safety, and airspace management. To keep pace with this development, global and national policies need to be in place to promote a sustainable, safe and economical growth of this capability.
