Interview of a former flight dispatcher – Vincent Grondin

The aviation industry is composed of many jobs such as pilot, flight attendant or air traffic controllers, but there are other jobs which are pretty unknown, and very important for the functioning of the airport or an airline. One of our co-founders, Valentin Sierro had the opportunity to interview a former flight dispatcher, Vincent Grondin. He has worked for more than 20 years for a private company at the Geneva airport and he shared his experience with us as well as his thoughts on Urban Air Mobility.

Urban Air Mobility at the first Swiss drone industry-academia gathering

In mid-February we had the chance to participate at the First Swiss drone industry-academia gathering in Bern, organised by the Drone Industry Association Switzerland (DIAS) and hosted by the Federal Office of Civil Aviation (FOCA). The who-is-who of the entire Swiss drone industry and universities were on site. A very compact, highly interesting event! Start-ups and other stakeholders in the field of Urban Air Mobility and eVTOL aircrafts were present too.

What is an eVTOL aircraft?

Vertical mobility exists since centuries but has been concrete from the beginning of the 20th century. To find the very first sketch using vertical take-off and landing, you have to go back to Da Vinci time (1452-1519). Da Vinci’s sketch was a first glimpse of what could be an aircraft in the future.
