Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The general aviation industry is about to be transformed by a rare convergence of technologies, mainly electrification, automation, and autonomy. Small aircraft of the future will be more sustainable, safer to operate, and more capable than today’s piston-engine aircraft. This report describes some of the challenges and opportunities that will arise when the upcoming technology convergence wave finds applications in four- to six-seat aircraft that will enter into service before the end of the 2020s.
