U.S. DOT and FAA Break Ground on $8.3 Million eVTOL Research Facility in Oklahoma
The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) have broken ground on a new $8.3 million research facility at the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center in Oklahoma City. Known as the Vertical Take-Off and Landing Procedures and Analysis Range (V-PAR), the site will serve as a dedicated testing environment for eVTOL aircraft, with research covering wake separation, radiofrequency interference, and vertiport operations to support the safe integration of Advanced Air Mobility vehicles into U.S. national airspace.
