I think with a little bit of know how, we could possibly build a "Biggie" possible based in London to fly say 20 or 30 people across to Paris, have a day out and fly back to central London,...... Didn't BEA try this in the late 50'S with the Fairy Rotodyne, perhaps seal technology and power to weight ratios are far superior to those days, but what would it cost, could this so called revolution can the V22 Osprey?
