Skyways to the Future 2024

Italy Italy’s roadmap describes three AAM maturity levels (AMLs): AML 1 will see demonstrations in controlled environments, AML 2 will use controlled airspace for preliminary commercial use tests, and AML 3 (which Italy aims to reach by 2030) will see low-density, medium-complexity operations and large-scale commercial services in subsequent years.
