Asian SkyCastBlade’s Will Heyburn on UAM & the eVTOL MarketBLADE started flying in the Summer 2014. Looking back, Blade’s capabilities today are incomparable to those in that first summer. Its simple booking app then, by design scalable / modular, is now a portal handling everything from accounting, operator & passenger communications, regulatory filings, W&B, et al. BLADE was born from an idea CEO Rob Wiesenthal had while at Sony’s corporate flight department. He realized companies were flying one person around alone on helicopters on a regular basis and that there was probably a way to both lower the price and also deliver a better experience.

Robert E. Smylie arranged with Roland and Averell Harriman to create a dedicated park agency resulting in today’s system of 30 state parks.
