No.
The ‘future’ airplane will be much like a helicopter.

Everybody has a blended-wing design that they’re trying to get funding for or get into production and into the market. Boeing’s X-48 is another example.

There aircraft of the future will be designed and built by Boeing.
To: the scotsman
Boeing has been researching a blended body for quite a while. I think it is the X43

In the late 90's Randy Schlitter built and flew his S-11 Pursuit, but an engine failure with hard crash and injuries put it off his board forever(?)

Saw this flying over my property one night. Prior to the maiden voyage. Flew low, deathly quiet and only a few (4) running lights. I live in rural so cal. It was a sight that stayed with me all these years.

For the price of a terrafugia you could get a ICON A5 and a nice vehicle to tow it.

I know exactly where that picture was taken. That’s the Sierra Nevada Range of California just south of Big Pine with the edge of Tinemaha Reservoir just to the right.
