This helicopter-airplane hybrid could take flight for civilians as early as 2020—take a look via CNBCMakeIt
Hypersonic aircraft might come in"20 to 30 years" but another innovation in the sky may fly sooner — and it will be available to the public.
The AW609 can take off vertically like a helicopter, hover and accelerate up, but it can also fly thanks to turboprop propeller engines on the end of each wing, according to CNN, and do so farther and faster. A representative for Leonardo tells CNBC Make It the company hopes to gain Federal Aviation Administration certification by the end of 2019, and if approved, the model could then hit the skies in 2020.
