The Samson Sky Switchblade Flying Sports Car, alongside a select group of innovative flying car designers worldwide, recently celebrated a significant milestone. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz signed a groundbreaking bipartisan transportation bill that includes provisions for roadable aircraft. These vehicles, defined as airplanes that can be driven to and from airports or private landing strips, now have a clear path to state registration and use on public roads and highways in Minnesota.
Legislative bodies across the US are actively working to facilitate the registration and licensing of roadable aircraft in all 50 states. Leading this innovative field are two US companies, Samson Sky and Alef, along with two European contenders, Pal-V and Klein. These companies are expected to commence production in 2025.
