TALK TO US →REGULATORY LANDSCAPEPosture + Burden · two parallel axes
PostureNEUTRALScoring · 10pts
Stance — how friendly state and municipal government posture is toward AAM infrastructure. Currently scored as a single weight in the AirIndex 7-factor model.
BurdenlowTracked · not yet scored
Nevada state aviation oversight is minimal; Harry Reid International airspace (formerly McCarran) is the operational constraint, not state regulatory burden. Initial assessment pending verification.
First-pass assessment · pending credentialed-advisor verification
Burden measures process friction — documents, reviews, public notices, and time-to-approve. A state can be posture-friendly AND burden-heavy simultaneously (e.g., Florida has enacted UAM legislation but requires a 13-document packet for heliport approval). Methodology.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE
Tourism and convention economy creates premium shuttle demand. Strip to LAS airport is an obvious first corridor. NV SB 115 is a drone regulation update, not UAM-specific. Clark County vertiport overlay zone not verified in public record. NBAA-BACE conference activity is not a sustained pilot program.
