What you will learn
A comprehensive 12-module program covering the full vertiport planning and design process.
The aircraft driving demand for new infrastructure: types, performance characteristics and what they require from a site.
The standards and guidance that govern vertiport design, and how they are applied in real submissions.
Reading the aeronautical and meteorological data that determines whether a site can operate.
Designing approach and departure paths, and assessing the obstacle environment around a site.
How a vertiport actually functions day to day, and what that means for layout and capacity.
Noise, visual impact and public perception as design inputs rather than afterthoughts.
Building route options and using simulation to test and evidence them.
Integrating aviation infrastructure with the surrounding transport, energy and built environment.
Environmental and social factors that shape what can be approved and built.
Moving a project forward with the authorities, operators and stakeholders involved.
The commercial and pre-investment questions behind infrastructure decisions.
Applying the full framework to a real or proposed site as your participant project.
Built by people working on the problem
This program is developed from LYNEports’ real-world work across aviation infrastructure planning, site assessment, regulation, and advanced air mobility.
