Description: Safety is essential to eVTOL development with novel and clean electric power. Different from the Electric Vehicle (EV) functional safety, eVTOL needs a top-down approach to establish the safety objectives for the power battery from scratch. This book covers: *eVTOL flight profile and effectiveness of aircraft level safety mitigation, i.e. parachute and crashworthiness; *Existing airworthiness certification approach for airborne battery systems; *eVTOL function definition methodology and function list examples; *eVTOL power battery system functional failure conditions and classifications; *Complexity and development assurance rigor comparison between aircraft and EV; * Special Condition of EH216-S Type Certificate.
