    Remote ID NPRM Maps out UAS Airspace Integration Plans by Charles Alcock

Joby says it will have the piloted S4 flying as part of the Uber Air air taxi network in early adopter cities before the end of 2023, but it will surely take far longer to get clearance for autonomous eVTOL operations.

    Creating an Environment for Permissionless Innovation

    TESTIMONY CREATING AN ENVIRONMENT FOR PERMISSIONLESS INNOVATION Christopher Koopman Senior Director, Center for Growth and Opportunity at Utah State University Senior Affiliated Scholar, Mercatus Center at George Mason University US Congress Joint Economic Committee Hearing: Breaking through the Regulatory Barrier: What Red Tape Means for the Innovation Economy May 22, 2018 Thank you, Chairman Paulsen, Ranking Member Heinrich, and members of the committee, for holding this hearing on this important topic. My name is Christopher Koopman. I am senior director at the Center for Growth and Opportunity at Utah State University and a senior affiliated scholar at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University. I am grateful for the invitation to discuss opportunities and challenges facing innovators and entrepreneurs in the United States, especially the role regulation is increasingly playing in the innovation economy. This issue parallels much of my work over the past five years, as well as other research projects being pursued at both the Center for Growth and Opportunity and the Mercatus Center. Any opinions I express today are my own and do not necessarily reflect the views of my employer. The current regulatory environment is inimical to innovation. 1. The culture of “permissionless innovation,” which was responsible for much of the economic growth associated with the growth of the internet, is now being stifled by old regulatory regimes. 2. Continuing to apply these regimes is not only discouraging innovation, but pushing innovators to pursue better regulatory climates overseas. 3. Reforming the regulatory regime is necessary to continue to reap the benefits of innovation we experienced over the past 30 years.

    Essays on Strategic Behavior in the U.S. Airline Industry

    Essays on Strategic Behavior in the U.S. Airline Industry Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Kerria Measkhan Tan, B.A., M.A. Graduate Program in Economics The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Matthew Lewis, Advisor James Peck Huanxing Yang c Copyright by Kerria Measkhan Tan 2012 Abstract In my first dissertation essay, \Incumbent Response to Entry by Low-Cost Carri- ers in the U.S. Airline Industry," I analyze the price response of incumbents to entry by low-cost carriers in the U.S. airline industry. Previous theoretical papers suggest that airlines might respond to entry by lowering prices to compete harder for existing customers or they might increase prices to exploit their brand-loyal customers. This paper tests which effect is more prominent in the airline industry. I find that when one of four low-cost carriers enters a particular route, legacy carrier incumbents respond differently than low-cost carrier incumbents to new low-cost carrier entry. Legacy carriers decrease their mean airfare, 10th percentile airfare, and 90th percentile air- fare before and after entry by a low-cost carrier. However, low-cost carriers do not significantly alter their pricing strategy. The differing incumbent responses can be attributed to the finding that low-cost carrier entrants tend to match the price set by rival low-cost carriers in the quarter of entry and tend to enter with a lower price than that of legacy carrier incumbents. The results also suggest that entry does not affect price dispersion by incumbent carriers.
