Plane Driven PD-1 - Roadable Airplane

The PD-1 is designed to perform as an aircraft first and a vehicle second. By incorporating a movable and auxiliary drive pod, the plane maintains its original center of gravity. During the transition, the wings rotate back along the side of the fuselage, the tail hinges and vehicle controls are quickly snapped into place.

It's remarkably simple and elegant comparing to the monstrosities that people were coming up with for nearly 70 years.

Someone might comment, that a better solution to getting around weather is get a jet and fly over it, but then you can forget about STOL and landing on grass strips.

Why the military want a Humvee they will fly like a helicopter that anyone could fly, this looks cheaper than that.
