산업의 고도화에 따라 시간을 절약하고 공간을 활용하기 위한 방법으로서, 보다 큰 항공기, 보다 빠른 항공기에 대한 요구가 꾸준히 제기된다. 최근 불거진 지구온난화에 대한 이슈는 모든 산업의 초점을 친환경으로 돌려고 있어서, 항공기산업의 경우에도 예외 없이 보다 친환경적이고, 연료 효율적인 항공기개발에 집중하고 있다. 또한, 과거에 비해 자유의지가 강조되는 현재에는 보다 이용이 간편한 개인용 항공기의 출현이 요구되고 있어 이 분야에 대한 연구도 활발히 진행 중이다. 이에 따라 많은 국가들이 각각의 요구에 따라 초대형여객기(VLCT), 차세대 초음속여객기(HSCT), 그린항공기, 개인 자가용 항공기(PAV) 등의 형태로 개발을 서두르고 있으며, 일부 분야는 이미 상용화를 눈앞에 두고 있다. 특히 PAV의 수요는 향후에 자동차 시장의 일부를 대체할 것으로 예상되는 만큼 선진국들은 수요자의 요구에 따라 발 빠르게 대응하여 PAV에 대한 투자를 아끼지 않고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 미래형 항공교통수단의 개발전망과 동향을 분석함으로써 앞으로 우리나라 항공기산업의 발전방향에 대한 시사점을 도출하고자 하였다. 특히 틈새 시장으로서의 PAV 분야의 개발동향과 전망을 살펴봄으로써, 동 분야에 대한 연구개발과 투자를 통한 우리나라 항공기산업의 발전기회를 모색해 보고자 하였다.

This study is aimed at a basic infrastructure for realizing urban air mobility (UAM) and personal air vehicle (PAV), which have recently been high interest as new means of transportation. The development of UAM and PAV technologies is a field of a high added value that the world is competitively pushing for the world. However, the three most fundamental aspects are the establishing an aviation certification system, finding reliable manufacturers having advanced technical abilities, and the training/securing of professional manpower. Above all, the aviation certification system will be established for the first time. Based on the certification system, it will be possible to realize the government's policy goal of introducing new means of transportation, including the production of aircraft and to realize commercialization that meets international standards that satisfy conformity and compliance. In addition, finding reliable manufacturers, fostering professionals, and establishing an educating system for stable supplying of the professionals are main projects to become a leading country in the field.

The present and future cities are expanding, and the noise and environmental pollution in cities are getting worse day by day, causing saturation of road and subway traffic. As a result, citizens are spending a great deal of time and money. The use of the sky as a measure to solve this problem has become a reality. However, airplanes that require airstrips and noisy helicopters are difficult to use in cities. As a solution, PAVs and UAMs that generate low noise and enable vertical takeoff and landing using electric energy, motor, hybrid, and hydrogen energy, are attracting attention, with its practicality being promoted in many countries. The development of urban environment and technology has led to the emergence of Personal Air Vehicle (PAV), Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL), and Urban Air Mobility (UAM) for shipping. Though currently at the level of testing, general commercialization of these air transport means is expected in the next five to fifteen years. This study suggests a plan on the application of human factors to the introduction of PAV and UAM.

At present, many countries around the world, as well as Korea, have faced serious social problems due to increased traffic congestion resulting in the social loss. As a result, there is an increasing demand for new transportation which is not exist. This is why many companies around the world are trying to solve this problem with transportation innovation through On Demand Mobility(ODM) which uses Personal Air Vehicle(PAV) that is operated on demand by customer rather than scheduled transportation. This study analyzed the current research trends of the On Demand Mobility projects of National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), UBER, and AIRBUS. Also, this study presents the benefit of adopting this On Demand Mobility systems into Korea. Three commuting routes were set up in the metropolitan area in Korea, and the benefit of using the On Demand Mobility method was compared with the current public transportation and private car.

The current development trend and status of a personal air vehicle, known as the novel concept of a transportation that combines a personal car with a light general aviation aircraft, is summarized to investigate its feasibility as a future transportation. In the paper, the development programs of a personal air vehicle such as AGATE, PAVE, SATS and NGATS are first summarized, and then the design, technical development and testing activities of Terrafugia's Transition and Moller International's M400 Skycar, which will be commercialized in a short time, are reviewed. Based on the assessment of technical issues with those vehicles, the key technologies for the future development of the personal air vehicle are suggested with two basic requirements of safety and mobility.

Rapid urbanization is rapidly progressing around the world, and urban problems such as traffic congestion, environmental pollution, and noise pollution are emerging, due to this urban concentration phenomenon, logistics and transportation costs are increasing. Urban Air Mobility(UAM) is a three-dimensional futuristic urban transportation that is expected to become an important transportation axis of smart cities as a service(MaaS) linked to roads, railways, and personal transportation. However, as of July 2023, research on airspace systems, Bertieport design, navigation, and communication for UAM operation is actively being conducted, but little research has been conducted on the concept of pilot education and training and education and training programs. Therefore, this paper aims to present a suitable plan for the domestic pilot training system through SWOT analysis of vertical takeoff and landing(VTOL) pilot education and training programs in the United States and Europe.

In this study, as part of the development of an autonomous flying personal aircraft, an equivalent model of the main wing assembly of an Optionally Piloted Personal Air Vehicle (OPPAV) was developed. Reliability of the developed equivalent model was verified by eigenvalue analysis. The main wing assembly consisted of a main wing, an inboard pod, and an outboard pod. First, for developing an equivalent model of each component, components to produce the equivalent model were divided into several sections. Nodes were then created on the axis of the equivalent model at both ends of each section. In addition, static analysis with unit force and unit moment was performed to calculate the deformation or the amount of rotation at the node to be used in the equivalent model. Equivalent axial, bending, and torsional stiffness of each section were calculated by applying the beam theory. Once the equivalent stiffness of each section was calculated, information of a mass and moment of inertia for each section was entered by creating a lumped mass in the center of each section. An equivalent model was developed using beam element. Finally, the reliability of the developed equivalent model was verified by comparison with results of mode analysis of the fine model.

최근, 팬데믹 상황이 나아지면서 줄었던 해외출장이 늘어나고 있다. 해외출장 시 주 교통수단으로 사용하는 항공기는 기상상황에 따라 변동이 잦고 이런 변경된 일정을 확인하기 위해서는 항공사 마다 로그인해서 일정을 확인하거나 공항 홈페이지에서 직접 항공편명을 검색해야 한다. 그렇기 때문에, 일정을 열람하기가 번거로우며 제 3 자와 일정을 공유하고자 할 때에는 제 3 자가 공항 홈페이지에서 항공번호를 직접 입력하는 방법 밖에 없으므로 더욱 불편하다. 본 연구에서는 이런 불편사항을 개선하기 위하여 하나의 웹사이트에서 자신의 일정을 등록하고 열람하며 제 3 자와 쉽게 공유할 수 있는 방법을 고안하였다.

In many countries, there are needs of new transportations to replace ground congestions due to growing number of cars. In addition, the increase in the number of cars held by economic growth will further increase traffic congestion in the future. To overcome this problem, many researches have been performed for personal air vehicle (PAV). In this study, the wing loading and the power-to-weight ratio that are major design parameters for the sizing of roadable PAVs were calculated for different kinds of airfoil and engine types. I.e., in the sizing process, the study was conducted to determine the design point using the graphs of wing loading, power-to-weight ratio, brake horse power, and fuel efficiency for the given mission profiles considering domestic environments and the FAR PART 23 which is the GA class aircraft certification standard. As a result of sizing, using diesel engine require high maximum take-off weight, wing area, and power compared to gasoline engine due to more engine weight.
