In the July meeting of the Commercial Air Transport (CAT) working group, Iridium Communications Inc. Director of Aviation and Business Development Joe Darden spoke with us about Iridium’s mesh network of low Earth-orbit satellites, and satcom data & voice communications applications for Advanced Air Mobility.

The VFS Transformative Vertical Flight Commercial Air Transport (CAT) Working Group discusses, defines and documents the activities and benchmarks necessary to facilitate safe, convenient and community-friendly operations for scheduled and on-demand, transformative vertical air transportation for airline operations, air taxis, private charters, regional transit, cargo distribution, package delivery and other similar commercial operations.
