Maiden flight is nice but like I said I'd like to see something proven to the point of being flown at a major international airshow - not just put on display with a video.
- FabHK 10y agoYeah, you've got a point there... And even that might not be enough: Remember the Icon A5 [1] (cool amphibian light sport plane) or the Terrafugia Transition [2] (flying car)? They've flown, been presented at Oshkosh, even partially certified - but will they ever really (wait for it...) take off? (BTW, though, the AERO is probably _the_ major European general aviation show.)
