Brivet cited pilot training as one of the limitations on expanding not just the air taxi business, but personal use of general aviation aircraft. And, reducing the weight of the fuel adds range, payload, and performance. Because of this, he sees autonomous flight as a critical component to future growth.

I’m not Lindbergh… This trip was ambitious for me, but quite common in the general aviation community. I also departed with the minimum amount of fuel I was comfortable with (airlines use this strategy to increase performance and/or increase payload capacity). Small aircraft are designed for these kinds of flights.

Developments in aircraft design and engine technology have allowed us to fly farther, faster, and carry more payload. Application of Newton’s Third Law in Aviation When we talk about airplanes, we focus primarily on two forces: Lift (how the aircraft stays aloft). This has only been possible by understanding the laws of physics.
