Congratulations and media pour in from around the world… AFTER THE SWITCHBLADE ANNOUNCED FIRST FLIGHT!

December 2, 2023

And I have a special request of you, towards the end of this email….

Samson has been receiving messages of congratulations from the hundreds of thousands of people who have been following our progress. The emails, Facebook comments, LinkedIn messages, just keep streaming in. It is heartwarming to see the appreciation of a job well done. We can’t thank you all enough for the support and encouragement along the way.

News of our First Flight has flooded the media, with Yahoo! FinanceMarket Watch, Fox Business News/Varney & Co, USA Today, FLYING, AOPA, The Weather Channel, local TV and news coverage, etc. The number keeps going up, but on last count we have reached a Total Potential Audience approaching 100 million people – a highest ever in Samson’s history!

We have pushed the barrier of technology to achieve a high performance flying/driving vehicle for you. The blood, tears, sweat, sleepless nights, and sacrifices made were for all who have had the dream of a truly practical flying car. We couldn’t have made this happen without you and your interest and support.

Please take a moment to acknowledge yourself for believing in the program, and to remember why you got interested in the first place. Whether you’re a Switchblade Enthusiast, staying engaged in the development of your flying car, or a Reservation Holder and future Owner – please take a win.

So, what did initially captured your interest in the Switchblade? A new way of life it could provide? A business tool? A means to stay connected to family or friends? The hope of a truly practical flying car? A simpler way to travel? Being able to explore and have amazing adventures? All of these and many more we find in people’s dreams of the future. Of their future. Of your future. A wise man once said “never regret yesterday, life is in you today and you make your own tomorrow”. Let’s you and I make a very good tomorrow.

The engineering team is shifting significantly over to Production Engineering (how to make thousands of Switchblades). Investor interest is at an all-time high, with several inquiries coming in every day of the week. Increasing investor interest enables us to get this into production at proper scale. There is no reason why we cannot take this to the ultimate win, and create a flying car future that literally and figuratively lifts us all up!

For those who haven’t seen this video of First Flight from a 360 degree camera mounted on the tail, please enjoy. Below that is drone video footage of the Switchblade rolling out of our friend’s garage near Oshkosh, Wisconsin, and transforming from driving to flying mode.

Now that we are all in the mood once again, I have to ask you a favor. You all know people. Or people who know people. We are about to undertake that next exciting step to get the Switchblade into production. There are individuals who know how to handle supply chains, manage inventory, train staff, check quality of parts and assemblies, do purchasing, oversee assembly lines, manage personnel issues, in short all of the aspects of a large manufacturing plant.

I don’t mean your cousin who can’t find a job. I mean those people who get the job done despite difficulties. Those are the people we are after. Those are the people who will build Samson into a world-class organization that rivals the best out there. They can send us an employment inquiry directly from the Samson Sky website.

We also have the need of investors of all sizes. There is the potential for a Crowdfunding Round which will allow smaller investors to participate in the same opportunity as the larger investors. So instead of the minimum investment being $50k or higher, Crowdfunding investors can come in with as little as $100. This program, if it happens, will need to be broadcast wide and fast for it to work. I would hope that if we do that program, you will send the news to people you know, to widen our reach and be more inclusive.

Just imagine for a moment that we all helped build this tremendous group that rocks the world by revolutionizing travel. A world where the Freedom Machine  puts the fun back into travel. What would it feel like to know that you had a hand in that?
