Urban air mobility is raising a lot of attention from both research and industrial communities. In near future UAM vehicles will be manned aircrafts with vertical take-off and landing capabilities, being this use case one of the priorities of current UAM regulations. Yet, the complete potential of UAS will arrive when autonomous UAS could be adapted to be used under addressing the standards. This papers aims to contribute to this activity proposing a way to execute a new autonomous landing in vertiports maneuver that follows the recently published standard presented by EASA. The landing maneuver has been studied and tested in simulation, analysing its complete casuistry. Its implementation is also described and could be deployed in the most common open-source autopilots available today.
