As an emerging safety perspective, resilience engineering is attracting increasingly attentions in aerospace industry. Numerous researches have been carried out to explore ATM resilience properties from different aspects. Nevertheless, there appear to be significant variations on the research objects, issues concerned, methods employed and indexes used. As far as we know, there seems to be an absence of a dedicated literature review to explore the application status of resilience in ATM area. To this end, our work is concentrated on the research situation and progress of resilience in ATM. A wide range of databases are retrieved to obtain an extensive coverage of the literature. Subsequently, the research works are reviewed on the basis of different classifications followed by a brief introduction of related findings and implications. Attempting to provide some reference for further studies, promising directions are pointed out in view of the challenges and requirements. It is desired that this work may throw some light on further explorations of ATM resilience.

“…These proposed vehicles are capable of vertical take-off and landing (VTOL), are fully electric or hybrid-powered propulsion and energy storage systems, are typically designed to carry under ten passengers and are expected to have a take-off mass under 3,175 kg [3]. These eVTOL aircraft are believed to be the cumulative result of technological disruptions in energy storage [4], advancements in distributed electric propulsion (DEP) technologies [5], regulatory receptiveness [3,6], advances in simplified vehicle operations and flight controls [7,8] and the general progress in autonomous navigation [9].…”

By the second quarter of 2022, over 500 electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft concepts have been unveiled. However, less than 30% of the concepts have achieved first flight due to the infancy of this industry. To keep track of these developments and the emerging urban air mobility landscape, a technical research database has been developed to categorize the concepts based on their propulsion architecture and compare them for performance and safety metrics based on published data and independent analyses. This paper presents the results of a study on 120 eVTOL aircraft concepts announced between 2014 and 2020. It reviews the current global eVTOL landscape and explores the technological progress enabling the development of these aircraft. Data on global eVTOL aircraft development show that eVTOL start-up companies are developing a majority of concepts at 68%. The USA, Europe and China account for over 70% of the concepts in development. The intensity of public announcements of new eVTOL aircraft concepts appears to have peaked after an exponential rise in the number of concepts unveiled between 2016 and 2018. This study intends to inform readers about the trends in eVTOL development and the dominant concepts that may be considered in trade studies.

“…The simplified cockpit interface shows current and assigned flight parameters, and contains a map showing vehicle position over San Francisco, the simulated airspace environment. Additional details on the simulation facility and virtual vehicle can be found in Marayong et al, 2020, andShankar et al, 2022. In our initial validation test of the simulation facility, eleven private pilots and eleven non-pilots were tested. All received approximately 45 minutes of training on the simulated vehicle and airspace; this was followed by four test flights consisting of two flights from downtown San Francisco to San Francisco International Airport, and two return flights.…”
