EADS VoltAir
Manufacturer: VoltAir VoltAir Special feature: Fully electric Estimated production cost: Unknown Expectations of the aircraft being developed today are very high indeed. Some of them should not only be capable of enormous speeds and distances, but also of carrying several hundred people at a time. Although EADS’ VoltAir is still in its conceptual phase, it already shows great promise. The environmentally-friendly aircraft is expected to seat 50 to 60 passengers. Completion is expected around 2035. At the rear of the aircraft is a lithium-air battery pack that can be exchanged and recharged

Aquatic Jet
Manufacturer: Unknown Special feature: takes off and lands on water Estimated production cost: Unknown For many, developing aircraft that make it easier to reach coastal cities is a source of motivation. This is the case in Norway, for example, so it’s not surprising that Norwegian Tomas Brødreskift has developed the concept of an aquatic jet. However, the SeaSTOL VLJ (Sea Short Take-Off and Landing Very Light Jet) can reach altitudes similar to those of other light jets. The cabin should accommodate 5-8 people. Thanks to the use of wheels, the aircraft can also land smoothly on the ground
