A new ASTM International standard supports the design of civil vertiports and vertistops. The standard ( F3423 ) is the result of a five-year effort by ASTM’s unmanned aircraft systems committee ( F38 ). A vertiport is a section of land, water, or structure intended for either manned or unmanned vertical takeoff and landing of aircraft, along with the associated buildings and facilities. A…, Media Inquiries:, Dan Bergels, tel +1.610.832.9602; dbergels@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Mary Mikolajewski, tel +1.610.832.9678; mmikolajewski@astm.org Release #11524 ###
