Oh my, hold your breath!
If you have ever seen ground transportation in China, you would understand their push to eVTOL type devices. Chinese airspace is pretty wide open at this point, owing to a near total lack of GA aircraft. It is also tightly controlled by the central government, so programming point-to-point air taxi service and avoiding other aircraft is relatively easy. It has always seemed to me that underdeveloped countries with poor or overly crowded road systems are the most logical places for AAM to gain traction. Developed western countries with a significant GA and helicopter population are more of a challenge due to the potential for mid-air conflicts.
