Part plane, part train, the Horizon System is an entirely electric transportation system. A maglev-style mechanism allows small trains carrying passengers to be hoisted to a large aircraft, without the need to stop at a central station. This would eliminate the need for large congested airports.
Who needs a pilot? The Horizon System could be the largest drone ever conceived.
