Last week marked the successful maiden voyage of the Samson Sky Switchblade. This is a pivotal moment in the evolution of transportation and may finally bring us closer to the age of The Jetsons!
This hybrid vehicle with both car and aircraft modes, is the result of years of technological advancements and innovation.
“After 14 years of design and rigorous testing, our first flight is a huge milestone, this puts us on the path towards producing thousands of Switchblades to meet the large and enthusiastic demand we’re receiving.”
Sam Bousfield, Samson Sky CEO and designer of the Switchblade.
The ability to transition from road travel to air travel seamlessly addresses the growing need for versatile and efficient transportation solutions in our increasingly fast-paced world.
This development not only captures the imagination but also points towards a future where travel is more flexible, less congested, and potentially more environmentally friendly, given the ongoing advancements in sustainable energy sources.
And people are actually lining up to get one of these vehicles despite the hefty price tag. They have over 2300 reservations at a starting price of $ 170,000.
