Show moreStudents will finish the design and prototype of a vertical take-off and landing craft (VTOL), which was begun in the Spring-2001 semester. This aircraft, capable of transporting two people point-to-point at speeds up to 120 mph while achieving 25mpg of fuel economy, has been proven very easy to fly in a simulator. Due to its simple design, it is expected that it could eventually be put in the market for less than $40k. Tthis semester, we will finalize and test the scale prototype and begin the design and marketing of the full-scale aircraft. Show less
