Sadly it is not real. It's a Instagramer called Robert Design. He mainly renders older cars being slammed and wide body kits. His favorite cars to design are Volkswagen. You can check out his Instagram profile.

Just came across this and thought it belonged here. This is not a kit built or an engineer designed plane this was built by a guy named Raimo Päätalo in Finnland with no training in aircraft construction or operation. He managed to get about 70 hours of flight time before they caught and grounded him. Then he did it all over again. He built at least three planes. This one has no ailerons, only elevators and rudder.

Impressive!, scale up a model airplane to people size, I've wondered if it could be done in the past.
I've flown a few simple 2 axis models with no ailerons (or throttle), if you do it right you can still do rolls much like something with ailerons, in some ways more fun than the complicated versions just because of the simplicity. _________________ Rust NEVER sleeps and stock never goes out of style.

That grill shell looks like it's from a late 50s Farmall 350. I think a Porsche-Diesel Super grill would be more appropriate. |

I showed this picture of TeePee Fred's Mercedes powered Chilcotin Special bug before and here it is again
I rediscovered another picture of a few years later version
TeePee Fred's V6 Chilcotin Special
Bus transaxle , 1/4" skid plate front to rear , no back seat just a big fuel cell
I'm not sure who made the V6
cool Ford hood for engine cover

Good looking buggy. At least no one will slip in the shower when this is around.
