The VTOL aircraft is a conceptual vertical jet designed by Lilium Aviation that is engineered for personal use and daily commuting for consumers living in remote locations. The airplane offers a small, compact and individual usage engineered to provide noise-free travel on a daily basis as flight travel becomes more affordable for the average consumer.
The aircraft will be an electric vehicle to provide travel suited for up to two passengers that is virtually noise-free and cost-effective. The plane will have a compact pod centre and two small-scale wings that can be used for travel up to 3-km.
The aircraft offers an alternative to owning a road vehicle, and requires a pilot license and a 20-hour training program to operate.
