Plana has signed an MOU to develop a professional AAM pilot training course with MI Air, and an LOI for the purchase of flight simulators and seven aircraft for AAM-specific pilots.

Alongside other eVTOL OEMs at NAAMCE, Plana expects to accelerate research on its CP-01 hybrid-electric aircraft, establish new technologies and collaborate with US companies and organisations.

The two companies plan to combine OneSky's airspace situational awareness, flight planning and simulation UTM/UATM solutions with Plana's expertise in developing and manufacturing eVTOLs.
