Electric maned airplane

I didn't see the price anywhere. Got an approximate idea?

Depends on many things, obviously, but somewhere in the range of
$150'000 to $200'000 with the trailer.

But you get much more than just an electrically powered aircraft for
this: Newest airfoil, newest wing shape, excellent finish, and a lot of
electronic gadgets. E.g. You will be informed of the battery charge
state by cell phone, you can start the pre-heating of the batteries
(required, depending on the weather) by cell phone, and a couple more
such things. Other solutions: The critical electric junctions are pyro
loaded, so in case of a short circuit you can cut them with the push on
a button to aviod heating and fire etc. BTW, all this is managed by a
computer running linux, so you can load your favorit flight simulator,
too, if you wish...
