Anyone know if this thing really works?

Apparently, it’s the very last Sky Commuter Prototype test craft that remains in existence today.

From the auction description:

“The development of this advanced technology and project started back in the mid 1980’s. Design and engineering was created by Boeing engineer’s in Arlington Washington. Some 60 investors and well over $6,000.000.00 in R&D and production yielded only (3) concept test ships before the plant was shut down for reasons not listed here. The sad end was all and anything that was in the hangar was taken and or destroyed. This sole example of this technology, advancements and investments are present and was saved in this single craft. The ship was not at the base location at the time or it to would have been destroyed.

This is the only registered aircraft with the FAA as a VTOL class and carries the correct tail number of N2001C. All aircraft materials and built by the finest. The craft is 14 feet long and 8 foot wide at the front Canard winglets and the rear outer fan rims.”

The current high bid is $47,600.
