Increasing urbanization and e-commerce encourage Urban Air Mobility (UAM) for cargo transportation. Today, the integration of the UAM into the manned air traffic is challenging due to the risk to third parties. Thus, this paper deals with the application of the SORA approach to three different Cargo UAVs involved in a green airfreight logistics chain, reinforcing safety as a UAV design driver.
