Abstract
Obtaining a type certificate(TC)is a necessary prerequisite for the commercial operation of person-carrying electric vertical take-off and landing(eVTOL)aircraft,it is necessary to conduct the relevant airworthiness research for TC certification. Based on the current development status of eVTOL aircraft,the applicability and key points of airworthiness requirements related to person-carrying eVTOL aircraft are analyzed in this paper,that have been issued by the International Civil Aviation Organization(ICAO),the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA),the Federal Aviation Administration(FAA)of the United States,and China. The shortcomings of the existing airworthiness requirements are summarized,and suggestions for establishing and improving the airworthiness requirements are put forward. Focused on currently domestic person-carrying eVTOL aircraft’s TC certification,six aspects of risks and challenges are analyzed and countermeasures are given,with the aim of providing reference for the establishment and improvement of airworthiness requirements,and the smooth progress of TC certification for domestic eVTOL aircraft.
