With less than a month remaining, remaining Phase III contenders in the Boeing-backed GoFly competition to develop new personal air vehicles are preparing for the Final Fly Off event on February 29, at NASA’s Ames Research Center in California. The winner will take home a $1 million prize.

Up to now, the GoFly competition has involved 854 teams from 103 countries developing a variety of largely vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft. Ten Phase I winners were announced in 2018, each taking a $20,000 prize. Another five winning teams were awarded $50,000 each in March 2019 at the culmination of Phase II.
