ICON Deaths

I see that one of the test batch of ICON's has crashed in the US.

The pilot was one of the test team (2 POB, both deceased) - kind of blunts the safest, can't spin, you only need 25 hours training stories.

You can kill yourself in just about anything that moves, airplane are no different - never been too impressed with the low level swoopy turn video ICON put out - always thought "asking for trouble".

I understand they clipped the shoreline of a lake.

So sad, thinking it will push back the delivery of airplanes even longer - should give some potential owners some pause for though too.
