surprised the designer went for a four wheel layout surely an enclosed lightweight 3 wheeler motorbike/car a la bond bug would have been more in tune with aircraft as well as being less restrictive for road use?

I could see a modern equivalent constructed from Kevlar with a modern trendy shape for two people. One nosewheel and two driving wheels. Fixed tail and telescopic wings which wind in and out like a radio aerial :-)

Then when I get into a two hour traffic jam like yesterday on the motorway I can back the traffic off to give me a takeoff roll and leave the traffic jam behind
