In this episode we speak with Kraettli Epperson, CEO and Co-Founder of Vigilant Aerospace, about autonomous aviation safety and building the systems that enable drones to operate at scale.
Kraettli shares his journey as a serial entrepreneur, from early internet startups to founding a company at the forefront of airspace management and collision avoidance for uncrewed aircraft.
The conversation explores aviation regulation, beyond visual line of sight operations, detect and avoid systems, and why safety is the foundation for the future of autonomous flight. Kraettli also explains how Vigilant Aerospace works across commercial, defence, and advanced air mobility markets, and why clear communication and cross functional engineering are critical in this space.
