This book aims to illustrate the impact of COVID-19 on the global
aviation industry and its many facets and disruptive innovations this
crisis is bringing to the industry, triggering a new phase of
development for air transportation. As a result, there has been
increased attention on the green aviation industry using new sustainable
fuels (including hydrogen). The aviation industry is also moving towards
operating electric aircraft. The book emphasizes a new concept of air
travel and an entirely new type of aircraft called eVTOL, which is to
say - electric Vertical take-off and landing aircraft. This new
reality is already taking place with the development of prototypes.
However, the road to its implementation is full of challenges.
The later part of the book focuses on how China has opened doors to the
private aviation sector as the country foresees an enormous opportunity
to push its internal economy and aviation industry further.
