MARKET INTELLIGENCE
Texas HB 1735 creates statewide favorable environment and TxDOT has active AAM work, but Houston has no local vertiport zoning code adopted. Extreme sprawl and lack of mass transit creates one of the strongest UAM demand cases in the country. Texas selected for federal air taxi pilot program (2026).
