The Samson Switchblade is an American amateur-built roadable aircraft, under development by of Meadow Vista, California. It was publicly introduced at AirVenture in 2009 in mock-up form. The aircraft is intended to be supplied as a kit for amateur construction initially and possibly as a complete ready-to-fly-aircraft in the future. By February 2016 the carbon fiber wings and folding mechanism had been prototyped.

  • The Samson Switchblade is an American amateur-built roadable aircraft, under development by of Meadow Vista, California. It was publicly introduced at AirVenture in 2009 in mock-up form. The aircraft is intended to be supplied as a kit for amateur construction initially and possibly as a complete ready-to-fly-aircraft in the future. The design effort is being led by Samson CEO Sam Bousfield, assisted by aeronautical design firm DAR Corp of Lawrence, Kansas. First flight of the full-sized aircraft was originally forecast in 2009 for 2010, but by July 2012 only a 1/4 scale model had been flown. In February 2014 the design had passed through the final round of wind tunnel testing, and in March 2014 the first carbon fiber parts were made for the conforming flying prototype. By February 2016 the carbon fiber wings and folding mechanism had been prototyped. In February 2018 the company indicated it intended to fly a prototype before year end. That goal was not met and in July 2019 the company indicated it was still working towards a first flight. (en)
