Public Opinion Concerning the Siting of Vertiports.

- Abstract
This article discusses public opinion and concerns regarding the siting of vertiports, which are hubs for Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) and accommodate the landing and takeoff of electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. The article emphasizes the importance of community engagement, addressing concerns, and providing transparent information to gain public confidence in AAM. A study conducted in the United States found that respondents generally have positive attitudes towards the presence of vertiports and eVTOL operations, seeing the potential benefits of faster transportation, reduced traffic, and environmental gains. However, there are also concerns about noise, safety, and air pollution. The study highlights the need for careful planning and consideration of the impacts of vertiports on communities and individuals.
