# Futuristic TriFan 600 Can Take Off Vertically Like a Helicopter

The TriFan 600 VTOL by XTI Aircraft looks like a small jet. But it can take off vertically from heliport-sized areas – just like a helicopter.

 
The aircraft has a six-passenger capacity (5 + 1 pilot). It has two wing fans which rotate forward for a seamless transition to high-speed flight.
Reaching a maximum speed of 400mph at 30,000-feet in 90-seconds, TriFan 600 can travel up to 1,200-miles without refueling.
XTI announced:
We fully expect that investors, especially crowdfunders and those with an interest in aviation, will be drawn to the idea of having their own ‘Kitty Hawk’ moment by being part of a truly new aircraft program that will change flight as we know it
