Sam Bousfield – CEO Samson Sky – Switchblade Flying Car Money doesn’t solve your technology, but it at least buys you the time to get that done. Sam Bousfield is the CEO and founder of Samson Sky and the visionary designer behind the Switchblade Flying Sports Car, a hybrid vehicle that can be driven on roads and flown as an aircraft. With a professional background spanning more than 25 years as an architect, Bousfield later transitioned into advanced vehicle design and aeronautical innovation, combining engineering, business, and creative disciplines to pioneer next generation transportation solutions. He holds a degree in architecture with additional studies in business management, marketing, and sales, and is the author of multiple patents, with work that has been published in both popular and professional scientific communities. Bousfield began developing breakthrough aircraft concepts in the early 2000s, collaborating with former Boeing engineers and producing designs that were recognized by leading aerospace organizations and even used by the Swedish government for wind tunnel calibration. After shifting his focus to practical transportation challenges, he founded Samson Sky and created the Switchblade to merge air and ground travel into a single, efficient vehicle. Today, he leads the company’s efforts to bring the Switchblade to market, positioning it as a transformative solution for regional travel and a major step toward the future of personal mobility.
