macchina Volantis

VTOL PERSONAL AIRCRAFT

Drives like a Car. Fly’s like a plane.

Mission

Macchina Volantis’s initial mission is to market and promote the use of (E)VTOL transport and on demand aviation to better utilize the Urban three-dimensional air space above the traditional hardscape roads in cities, additionally to assist with the introduction of a regulatory structure to control integration.

  • Promote and educate (E)VTOL use
  • Better utilize three-dimensional urban air space.
  • Develop a regulatory standard for (E)VTOL

Vision

Macchina Volantis’s vision is to create the unique products ((E)VTOL) and services around a network of (E)VTOL use for cargo and ride share within the Urban air spaces. Further to market and educate on the societal benefits of using Urban air travel as an alternative to the traditional hard surfaced roads and rail networks. Lastly, to utilize sophisticated SWARM type technology to ensure safety and uniformity in (E)VTOL use.

  • Create (E)VTOL products.
  • Market and Educate societal benefits.
  • Assist in creating advanced software for SWARM.
