Since a decade, Uber has made the taxi industry restless by its services. The company is working on the self-driving cars and the testing of the self-driving cars was help at Pittsburgh. Now, Uber is taking steps for the most promising flying cars.
Uber is working on the fully electric aircraft which is aimed to take off and land vertically. These are not the flying cars, which mean that, they can fly in the sky and also they can drive on the road. These technologies were aimed to make people free from pollution and traffic jams. This is the dream since the period of the planes and the automobiles. Many popular sciences in 1926 cover this idea. Henry Ford assured …show more content…
Boeing and Airbus have introduced fly-by-wire systems and lightweight, composite materials to commercial aviation. Consumer support is one of the key factors to prove that the software can make a multi propeller aircraft fly that too as simple as thumbing an iPhone. Electric cars and the computers have moved the battery technology forward to the next level. The US Department of Energy is spending millions of dollar to promote the research. This concept of Uber is called as Uber Elevate.
Uber Elevate is expected to be operated in a fixed wing, tilt rotor aircraft and they are expected to take off from the helipads not from the space-hungry runways then they swing their wings to the thousand feet up for the efficient level flight. Using many little rotors instead of the big one will cut down the noise. Uber also has many capable partners; they may help uber in achieving this objective.

The FAA will also go with it. But the money should not put on the 2021 arrival date. It is tough to conceive all the novel topics in the period of five years.
Uber flight
Consider, someone has figured out how to make the flight and FAA also approves it, at last, FAA and NASA implemented the NextGen air traffic control system, to keep the things raping into one another. Finally Uber has to implement this service.
Holden said that, the company may buy the aircraft and hire the pilots to make them fly or they may join the manufacturer who handles the titles while uber connects them with passengers and advises on the routes. Owning a plane requires a huge amount.
Without any doubt, Uber will find the interested passengers and the willing pilots for a payday. The difficult part of this is getting the approval from the local governments. Since the company expresses less than a sterling history of getting with the regulators.
Uber dropped the temporary and promotional helicopter service in January at Utah for the Sundance film festival and the officials felt that the flights violated the country codes and also they posted a safety
