AERONAUTICS
Overview
Urban Aeronautics is seeking $100 million of equity for the continued development of CityHawk, a 5-seater urban eVTOL aircraft.
Planned for commercial flying of urban travelers for both fixed routes (Airport Shuttles) and intra city travel (expecting typical trips to be 25 miles )
Highly suited for city Emergency Medical Services (EMS) for time critical medical conditions (cardiac arrest, trauma injuries, etc.)
AERONAUTICS
Opportunity
Urban Aeronautics is focused on creating the best urban mobility aircraft
CityHawk’s unique design differentiates it from the competition
Enabling safe air transportation and ground handling with minimal infrastructure needs
AERONAUTICS
Solution/Strategy
Highest viability of large-scale inner city operations, simply due to smaller sized aircraft
With a huge market potential for strong aviation, facing incumbents and exciting newcomers means strategy and timing will determine success
Most promising segment for large drones is the middle mile or middle “small” mile of urban environment.
Augments medium trucks of less than full truck loads for time sensitive deliveries such as medical and high-end goods.
