AWWA SKY WHALE (electric aircraft)
This ultra-futuristic aircraft is not a sci-fi creation.
Actually it's a Oscar Viñals concept/project for the next-gen aircrafts.
Yes it is [u] electric[/u].
It has 4 engines alimented by electricity and hydrogen.
For this feature, it will be [u] more silencer[/u] than actual aircrafts.
It is not ended here: its 4 engines have the ability to rotate by 45°, which helps the pilots at the take off and improves the maneuverability in dangerous situations.
[u] Three floors[/u]:
-[b] the top one[/b]:
It's the 1st class floor....
Much more lux than the actual ones.
Sky visual.
-[b] the middle one[/b]:
It's the floor for the new touristic class which have more lux.
Sky visual.
-[b] the lower[/b]
The actual touristic class.
It will have [u] active wings[/u].
It will have [u] solar panels[/u] on the top of the fuselage and wings.
And much more other stuff... I'm so excited. I want fly on this thing one day...
[spoiler] they only need a company as the Lufthansa. But the project seems to be ready[/spoiler]

Something like this could stay airborne for a very long time, and save fuel costs (everyone feels that one). The design is a bit odd, but cool anyways. A lot of smaller companies are actually putting out prototypes, like the Pipestrel Taurus. I would also like to point out that electric planes are a hell of a lot quieter too. So there would be a lot less noise complaints from people living near the airport. Looks like it would be awesome to fly in.
