Contingency management is the most challenging aspect of autonomous flight. In order to accommodate the most flexible response to unpredicted events and unexpected circumstances, i.e. contingencies, a new integrated path planning, trajectory following, flight control architecture is required that would maximize the safe operating envelope. For this highly integrated generalized control architecture, a new set of performance metrics that extends beyond traditional stability and performance is required. This paper proposes a candidate set of new performance metrics relevant to urban air mobility mission scenarios.
