SAFETY
Metric: Fatal Accident Rate 9
ADDED METRIC: Consider fatal accidents
as a metric. Tie to occupant safety and
crash survival technology
ADDED GOAL: Suggest tweak to safety
Have group discuss target safety levels
and expectation. Also discuss reliability
vs. propability & IOE-X. 6%

ACCESSIBLE INFRASTRUCTURE
Metric: Proximity Distance
Metric: Ground Travel/Time Required
Added Metric: Flight Density/Capacity 6
Access to Airspace: Scalability has the
need for new paradigm for ATC, VFR, IFR
if personal aircraft for ODM will provide
commute capability (short winter days)
Varying level of autonomy enables
organized traffic, efficiet point to point
travel with deconfliction.
TOTAL VOTES for percentages
140
Each participant received 3 votes
Allowed to allocate multiple votes to individual goal if desired
Plotted percentages obtained by multiplying percentage of total votes received by 3
Intended to reflect % of participants indicating goal is a top priority
Over estimates % of participants supporting if item received multiple votes from individual
Significant discussion on “Safety” as a goal prior to voting
Many participants felt that safety was such a foundational requirement that they didn’t need to apply votes to it.
Safety is always a top priority
