About CEO/CTOMITI has actively participated in wind turbine design and business growth programs at both Boston University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Their expertise spans across renewable energy and business development, which aligns well with the future of Advanced Air Mobility (A.A.M.). The AeroTae project has achieved significant milestones: Half-Scale Mockup: A smaller-scale representation of the aircraft design, allowing for testing and validation. Full-Scale Mockup: A life-sized model that provides insights into the physical aspects of AeroTae. Operational Testing (Second Iteration): The current phase involves rigorous testing of the full-scale design. McQueen, with a graduate degree in Computer Science, plays a hands-on role in AeroTae’s engineering. His expertise extends to integrating automated systems for design and navigation during VTOL (Vertical Takeoff and Landing) operations. The combination of MITI’s background and McQueen’s involvement positions AeroTae for success in the exciting field of A.A.M.
Timeline of TechAeroTae represents a cutting-edge modular transport system designed for versatility and efficiency. Its innovative design allows for the seamless interchangeability of essential components such as wings, tail sections, propulsion systems, batteries, and pods. This modular approach not only facilitates easy customization but also enhances maintenance and upgrade capabilities. One of AeroTae's standout features is its dual-mode capability, enabling it to transition between ground travel and aerial flight.
AeroMcQ focuses on urban and suburban living by integrating skyport support for landing and state-of-the-art, energy-efficient luxury family accommodations. It aims to enhance quality of life while minimizing environmental impact, promoting a harmonious lifestyle that blends seamlessly with green spaces. This vision represents a forward-looking approach to sustainable urban living and transportation infrastructure.
McQueen Innovative Transport Inc.(MITI): The parent company of AeroMcQ, is dedicated to advancing Air Mobility solutions for the future.
AeroTae VTOL: Designed for various uses including Sky Taxi services, Fractional Ownership models, Personal Transportation, and Military Operations.
AeroMcQ Sky Port Condominiums: Self-sustaining living spaces featuring power generation systems to charge AeroTae, promoting quality of life, and serving as hubs for business development aimed at enhancing American business, jobs, and the economy on a global scale.
American commerce has always been closely tied to transportation. Similarly, the future of Advanced Air Mobility (A.A.M.) will follow this trend. MITI (presumably an educational institution) plays a vital role by engaging in community outreach and partnering with BAP America. Their initiatives include: Jr. Engineering Programs: Focused on Air Force One, these programs nurture young talent in engineering and aviation. Business Development Programs: These initiatives support technology, film, and music incubation and acceleration. Primary Education Programs: Specifically geared toward Aviation Electrical and Mechanical system service and maintenance. As A.A.M. grows, the emergence of Sky Taxis and Sky Landing Ports will necessitate a connected community to foster job opportunities and support this exciting future.
Currently, AeroTae is undergoing propulsion testing. The Advanced Air Mobility (A.A.M.) capabilities it aims to achieve go beyond simple VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing). They necessitate a sophisticated system involving coordinated navigation and operational interfaces. This system will be modular, integrated, and capable of autonomous operation to meet diverse operational needs. It's not merely a graphical concept but involves a comprehensive development process encompassing aircraft, infrastructure, and human factors.
AeroTae Progression
In summary, as part of our growth plan for Advanced Air Mobility (A.A.M.), it’s crucial to meticulously plan GPS landing profiles and strategically locate sky ports in major cities and their suburbs. This comprehensive approach includes developing VTOL technology, creating infrastructure, establishing air corridors along interstate highways (such as 10, 35, and 95), fostering commerce relationships, and constructing sky port condominiums. Our initial locations in San Antonio and Corpus Christi pave the way for future expansion into Jacksonville, Austin, Dallas, and Houston.
Highlights of Corridor
NASA’s vision for Advanced Air Mobility, or AAM, is to map out a safe, accessible, and affordable new air transportation system alongside industry partners, community partners and the FAA. Future airspace design is critical to a safe and efficient integration of AAM into our current air traffic management system.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) envisions reaching the next level of safety and efficiency while demonstrating global leadership in safely integrating new users and technologies into our aviation system.
In summary, MITI’s primary focus lies in advancing Personal Aerial Transportation. This encompasses various aspects:
Aircraft Development: Designing and creating innovative aerial vehicles.
Sky Ports and Landing Systems: Establishing efficient infrastructure for takeoff and landing.
Traversing Systems: Ensuring seamless travel between destinations.
Overall, MITI aims to streamline engineering, production, and service processes to propel the next generation of sky travel and support.
