This paper explores the current status of regulation concerning unmanned aviation in Europe. In particular, the paper takes into consideration the technological and regulatory advancement pertaining to Urban Air Mobility (UAM), which is believed to revolutionise traditional air transport, as we currently know it. As the paper discusses, UAM does not only raise issues of a technical nature, but also, and more importantly, from a legal, sociological and economic perspective. In this context, for example, the use of drones in urban environments does lay emphasis on a necessary coordination between air traffic management (ATM) and unmanned traffic management (UTM), as well as on the need to regulate entirely new categories of aerospace infrastructures, such as vertiports or U-space.
