"All you need in this world is duct tape and WD40."

Well, if Burt Rutan designed it... :D
While I'm a fan of this flying car... I'm an even bigger fan of the Icon amphibious aircraft for about half the price of the Terrafugia... check it out: http://www.iconaircraft.com/icon-a5-video.html
Hi, I am New here. Just wanted to say that ICON A5 Plane that will be coming out in the near future should be nice. Hope it makes it through all the FAA appovals.
