For those who have everything: ICON A5
The ICON A5 floatplane has folding wings and costs less than some luxury cars.
Employing “minimal, car-like” instrumentation and available to anyone with the “new, more accessible” sport-pilot license, the ICON A5 aims to bring “personal flight to the masses.” Costing less than some luxury cars, the “sleek floatplane” has folding wings, making it easy to tow and stow, and its unleaded-gas powered 100-hp engine can be refueled
at most marinas.
Price: $139,000
