AUDI Loop Concept / Flugzeug

The free rider loop focuses on fun in flight and agility, both when gliding or in engine-powered flight. The open side-by-side cockpit with its large glass dome provides much more of a joint flight experience than the customary tandem principle. The efficient but high-performance 150 hp turboprop engine and three sets of landing gear enable a completely autonomous start. landing gear, propeller, and air intakes can be retracted when flying in glider mode.
