Samson Sky says it’s now holding 615 reservations for its new Switchblade kit-built, flying sports car. The company is sponsoring a Sun ‘n Fun forum at midday on Friday about the state of the flying car industry where visitors can chat with the Switchblade creators. The Samson Sky reservation program was launched at Sun ‘n Fun just two years ago when the first glimpse of the wing swing mechanism for the vehicle was released. The Switchblade is reported to have the power-to-weight ratio of a 2017 Corvette.
