evtolA prerequisite for commercial operation is airworthiness certification
According to Beijing Shenzhen Capital, low-altitude aircraft involve public safety, and the highest safety standards of EVTOL are set at the same level as civil airliners, that is, the probability of an accident is 1 in a billion. According to the Regulations on the Qualification and Accreditation of Civil Aviation Products and Parts issued by the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC), there are three main types of certificates required for the legal use of aircraft, namely type certificate (TC), production license (PC), and operation license (AC). For civilian eVTOLs, the forensic path follows the above process.
evtol has preliminarily met the airworthiness management requirements for commercial operations, and the airworthiness certification process is generally 2-3 years, and it is expected to accelerate in the future driven by the market
As of now, EHang EH216-S is the world's first EVTOL aircraft to obtain TC certification. EHang submitted the EH216-S manned unmanned aerial vehicle system type certificate application in December 2020, and the aircraft received the world's first TC certification in October 2023 after nearly three years from the submission of the application to the TC certificate.
The application scenarios of evtol are expected to continue to expand, and the urban scenarios of to C are expected to open up the market space
evtolThe application scenario has several main characteristics - low-altitude, point-to-point, to solve the occasional needs (such as emergency rescue, rescue, etc.) and continuous needs (commuting, travel, etc.) of the target customer group
evtol application scenarios can be divided into multiple dimensions, to b g and to c; Urban scenes as well as non-urban scenes
to b g and to c:The former includes inspection, fire fighting, sightseeing, emergency rescue, aviation medical treatment, etc.; The latter include private jets, low-altitude travel, etc. We expect that the To B G scenario will be the first to land, and the To C scenario will open up the market space.
Urban scenes as well as non-urban scenesWe expect that non-urban scenarios are expected to be the first to land, and urban scenarios will open up the evtol market space.
