Hey ChasInMt,
Do you have any info or updates on their full size proto? It sounds like it is behind schedule but that is not unexpected as most airplanes are late. This ends up being a good thing as they are usually somewhat better than if flown too early. Experimental or restricted category is pretty open to design creativity with the exception of strength and safety. Bottom line is someone has to fly it. Even when it is all sorted out this takes a brave sole to be a test pilot. I was amazed to see the terafugia actually make it past proto stage.
