This photo shows the close
resemblance of the SkyTran vehicle to a soaring glider
cockpit. Personal sized vehicles that have a minimum of
frontal area combined with very comfortable semi-reclined
seating allows us to minimize the energy wasted in pushing the
vehicle through the air. Clean electric powered,
non-polluting, SkyTran vehicles will obtain an electrical energy
efficiency equivalent of over 200 miles per gallon while
traveling along in smooth, quiet comfort at a steady 100 miles per hour. |
