Meet the $3M mini jet that flies itself and parachutes to safety if things go wrong

MEET THE $3M MINI JET THAT FLIES ITSELF – THE CIRRUS SF50

It seats 6, can be flown solo, and cruises up to 31,000 feet with a 1,200-nautical-mile range – all while taking off from runways under 1,640 feet.

The engine’s mounted on top to avoid ground debris, and in a crisis? Pull a handle and the entire jet parachutes down.

Oh – and if the pilot passes out, it’ll land itself. Yes, really.
