The Flying Island

Background Story and Concept

Model of The Flying Island (Vliegend Eiland) by Belgian artist Panamarenko, The Flying Island is a poetic, solar-powered hovercraft concept featuring a three-seat cabin and a massive 17-meter wingspan. Created in 2004, this lightweight all-terrain vehicle moves on a two-meter-high air cushion and is controlled simply by shifting body weight. [1, 2]
