Hybrid Planes

Aeroscraft ML866, a prosposed hybrid airship to be built by the Worldwide Aeros Corporation.

Hybrid planes are to determine the future of air and even space flight. These planes are of different characteristics.

It basically means an alternative means to propel the engine, which would be even more fuel efficient and sustainable in nature, from the existing modes of flight fuel. This is done by including the aerodynamic lift to the body and fixing lighter-than-air (LTA) technology. As a result these planes would be light weight

There have been concept flights made and all of which have been successful.
