  • Aptera, from the Greek because it means "without wings."

    Now that sounds like a good name for someones Thunderbird....anyway, about a year ago the Aptera was mentioned, and here's a recent article on it:

    "What Is It?
    So call it a wingless airplane, a flightless bird, a three-wheeled teardrop — all have been used to describe it. But don't call the Aptera a car" Enjoy

        They should give it gull-wings.
