NCAM Why an Industry Consortium?
3
NCAM The Small Aircraft Transportation System concept is a safe, affordable travel alternative that will provide new mobility and create equitable access to more communities in less time for the general public. An augmentation to “hub and spoke” and a key to the “Next Transportation System... ”
