The Terraplane
Xplore 7.4 with your foot to the floor.
Drive this fun and useful aircar. Go places, see and do things as never before.
"A CAR? Hey pal, Xplane is a flight simulator!" Yes, it's the best! But how do you get to the airport? No one ever sees an MD-80 at MacDonalds. After the friendly skies, how about a tour of the town, a cruise in the Italian Alps or a visit to Greece?
Get your kicks on Route 66: no jams, no cops, no limits! Just look what you can do:
LAND Go where aircraft cannot. Zoom along vector roads, railroads and trails, over 200 mph.
Drive slowly in cities or sprint off road, up to 180 mph. Conquer 45 degree hills. 0 to 60 in 3.
Rugged Baja design and construction means a stable ride, smooth control and good crash worthiness.
SEA Self-righting amphibious design lets you navigate lakes, rivers and oceans at up to 50 knots.
AIR Terrabatic. Instant 180 degree reversal, zero stopping distance, or turn once per second. Can stand on its nose.
Jump canyons and cliffs with its JATO and parachute. Drop in, drive off. Anywhere.
MADE FOR SCENERY: See the ground from the ground.
Gorgeous, unique views driving on islands, in mountains and especially in cities at dusk. Zip across desert flats, or slowly cruise the Nile. Perfect for scenery builders. The Terraplane is my first "aircraft" and made mostly for slow speed, eye-level, up close viewing of custom scenery, objects and terrain. A great friend to World Maker. See hill heights, floating objects, poor node junctions, etc. Quickly ground truth your taxiway and object placements. The Garmin 55 AVD GPS equipped Terraplane is a useful visual tool.
MORE? OK! Powerful and quiet twin electric eco-motors, 3D Xcockpit, compass, brass whiteface gauges and Italian burl walnut panel, tinted glass, custom wheels, two tone horn, seven luscious paint schemes and even fuzzy dice (optional). Six point seat belt, HANS restraint and barf bag standard. Read the illustrated Owner's Manual and DriveXp! primer, 'cause it ain't yer Daddy's Ford.
Wouldn't your neighbours love to see you in this!
From anywhere to everywhere. Be polygon in 60 seconds!
