PODCAST: James Dorris of Odys Aviation on Regional Air Mobility and its compelling use case when compared to eVTOL

Our next pod­cast is now live! This week, we were delight­ed to be joined by James Dor­ris, CEO and co-founder of Odys Avi­a­tion.

In this episode, James explains more about his jour­ney to-date and the rea­sons that led him to joint­ly set up Odys Avi­a­tion. As a sus­tain­able air­craft start­up, he tells us about the role it hopes to play in the mar­ket and the air­craft it is build­ing.

We hear about his thoughts on Region­al Air Mobil­i­ty (RAM), espe­cial­ly as it makes for a com­pelling use case when com­pared to oth­er short­er jour­neys using eVTOL air­craft. Stick­ing with RAM, James gives his take on what he’s been hear­ing about the speed to mar­ket of hybrid RAM air­craft vs eVTOL, and that many sug­gest hybrid RAM will be that step­ping stone to the next gen­er­a­tion of avi­a­tion.

As Odys will use city air­ports and local heli­pads, we ask James if the com­pa­ny has any spe­cif­ic routes iden­ti­fied and the impor­tance of util­is­ing exist­ing land­ing infra­struc­ture.
