ICON To Launch A5 Folding Aircraft

A5 Folding Aircraft

An aircraft that resembles a Sports Car! Thanks to ICON for unveiling A5 Folding Plane that would cost you a sum equivalent to a Maserati ($139,000). Expected to be commercialized by 2010, the two-seater lightweight airplane comes with folding wings (making it easing for you to install in your garage) and seat belt-like parachutes (offering you the accessibility to keep the whole thing down to the ground). It sports a high-strength, lightweight carbon fiber airframe and is motorized by a steadfast, 100-hp Rotax 912 and can fly at a speed of 120 mph.

Other specks detail an innate, sports car-like arena with MP3 port, and an amphibious design with retractable hallway gear for flying off land. It is inviting pre-orders at a refundable amount of $5,000 deposit.
