Fastest and Safest Private Airplane of the Future: Cobalt Co50 Valkyrie

The manufacturer describes Co50 Valkyrie as the fastest and safest aircraft powered by the single-piston engine. Over the 10 years of aircraft development many changes have been made to turn Cobalt into one of the safest and most affordable aircrafts, which additionally can travel at speeds of up to 300 miles per hour.



Speaking of the distance, which may be covered on one tank of gas, the manufacturer claims that one passenger and the pilot on board, this aircraft prototype can travel up to 2590 km or 1610 miles.



Every additional passenger will only decreases this distance, which makes perfect sense. But, when loaded to maximum capacity, Co50 Valkyrie can easily cover the distance of up to 840 km or 521 miles.



This compact, standing at just 9.1 m (29ft) in length and 3 meters (10 feet) wide, futuristic looking aircraft is being offered via the pre-order at the moment.



The purchase of such futuristic-looking airplane will cost about 700 thousand dollars but the final deliveries are said to be completed only by the end of 2017.
