My whole life I've been seeing cool CGI of pie in the sky concepts and a rare physical prototype that never goes into regular use.

VTOL = vertical take off and landing. Not vertical takeoff on launch.

[andrewtoombs]

major problem with vertical take off is the aircraft being caught in a reciprocating votrex which actually is caused from the downward air pressure making it back up above and into the intake system. That problem is very serious, usually happens around vertical structures like walls, valleys. harsh side way wind gust can cause instabilities of these levitating devices.

Cannot believe how far we have come! Can't wait!

[piehound]

Already amazed. But go ahead and amaze me some more. hahaahaahaahaha Can anyone EVER have enough amazement

[imac]

Full self flying would be a lot easier than self driving. Without pedestrians, dogs, rubbish trucks, potholes, cyclists etc it would be much easier to build the software. Avoiding other flying objects would be easy, as they would all have to have transponders. By limiting when and how they land you could reduce the dangers of being close to earth. Compared to trying to navigate a suburban neighbourhood it would be a breeze!

I think the A380 has proven that sticking a thousand people into a plane is not the way to go. Smaller versions of blended wing designs are the way to go and having seats with windows that look forward would be awesome!

[chrishall]

Loved that one line about being based on birds in flight. last i checked....ALL aircraft happen to be based off of birds in flight. Just felt like the dumbest thing to say

[rileyjordan]

Terrafugia sounds like a crazy Chinese spy scheme. 😂

[hernanposnansky]

The blended wing body configuration was invented decades ago by Liebeck and continued by Boeing

[francescos]

Great like car, automotive,rocket, launch pad, Airport designer and engineer like me.

[flyingthroughhistory]

Airbus have been on about that configuration since the mid 90s, been promising soon since then.

[LOLonHere]

Imagine if road fraud still existed even after everyone was in the air.

[remco]

Top Fives release a Top Ten and starts with Top 15

[olgamartin]

It is so cool and and it will help the world

[scott_lego_city]

Wow im early the last time i was this early there were still prop planes

[tapsweetTop]

Great video! Love the idea! These all look pretty awesome!

[TheSumit]

Some of these designs were probably published in scientific American magazine in early 2000s, they are still not in production

[romliahmadabdulnadzir]

As you have observed, how effectively the micro-steam rises vertically to the sky and forms clouds, which move (float and move) through modules of different cloud configurations. However, there are many ways to land, including rainfall (vertical landing) and so on. It's exciting to learn, forget, and relearn for our impromptu VTOL, but don't replicate nature as a good example of how we develop different ways of flying different from birds. Kudos!

8:39 most of us haven't been in a double decker plane😭
