Check video at 1:24 for weight indication

Do you agree that what was flown was a full size two seater craft, ie of a size that could fit two adults?

Mick,

If you know or have access to the actual flight vehicle dimensions, just provide them. It may be capable of fitting two passengers, but it appears smaller than he non flying mockup shown earlier in the video.

Regarding the flying aircrafts actual weight. Stop the video at 1:24 and look at the landing gear being used. The three thin curved hoops of either composite or metal could not support a realistic weight of a two passenger aircraft.
