COFFMAN Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 All yours mate, the fold up wings............... not for me :brows: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted October 7, 2014 Author Share Posted October 7, 2014 The only time I can see driving it on the road would be back and forth to the airstrip. :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeepman Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Love it although not the Sexiest street machine... Cool for sure but the question I would have is what Licence would you need, I always thought anything with more then one seat doesn't qualify as a Hobby type of craft... I can just picture it now, your speeding down the road and OH No the Cops are Trying to pull you over so you hit the Highway and drop those wings and BYE BYE officer...

HOrnbrod Posted October 7, 2014 Author Share Posted October 7, 2014 It's an experimental aircraft with two seats so I think you would need an FAA Private Pilot license plus the Experimental Aircraft Authorization certificate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dasbulliwagen Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 They say it the future of transportation. People can't drive cars correctly, how will they be expected to fly any better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88AKChief Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Depending on how much it weighs, you could get it into the LSA Category, The aircraft itself would be registered as an experimental theres not actually an experimental "license" so to speak added to your actual Pilots License.
