The article provides information on a roadable aircraft vehicle model being developed by Carl Dietrich, an aeronautical engineering graduate student from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge. He believes that the capability of the model to cruise between two small airports in the U.S. and then drive to a final destination will interest pilots. The projected price of an actual roadable aircraft is approximately $150,000.
