Terrafugia TF-X

The TF-X seats four passengers and uses an engine combined with two electric motors for propulsion.

[1] Unlike the previously proposed Transition, the TF-X is capable of vertical take-off and landing by extending its retractable wings attached with pusher propellers, while aerial thrust is provided by a ducted fan at the rear.

The TF-X will also provide operators the choice to fly in either manual or automatic during flight with the ability to control the vehicle in a manner similar to steering the wheel of an automobile.

[4] The TF-X is expected to be capable of avoiding air traffic, bad weather, and restricted and tower-controlled airspace.

For additional safety features, the TF-X would automatically land at the nearest airport if the operator becomes unresponsive.
