Episode 53: Mike Hirschberg and Jim Sherman of the Vertical Flight Society

Mike is the society's Executive Director while Jim is Director of Strategic Development and the pair have been instrumental in increasing membership numbers and organising the many events for the VTOL industry. Fresh from the society's successful Forum 77 event earlier this month, Jim provides us with some early feedback while Mike talks more about the increase in the number of companies joining as members. We talk about the key points that have helped to accelerate the growing eVTOL revolution, the challenges that still need to be addressed and what VFS events the industry can look forward to later this year and into 2022.
