Underwater plane to explore ocean depths

The U.K. Company Virgin Limited Edition recently announced the Necker Nymph, the three person airplane like submarine. Virgin and its founder Sir Richard Branson have the experience of building new vehicles. It can dive to the heights of 36000 feet which is much larger as compared to the height of the Mount Everest. This vehicle is designed and had been built by the San Francisco based Hawkes Ocean Technologies. It offers the new experience of the underwater flights for the wealthy riders. It is one of the positively buoyant vehicles which extend the capabilities of the scuba.

It uses the ballast to sink in the water. It uses downward lift on the wings to move down to the depth. It is capable of performing dolphin like flips under water. The 360 degree viewing experience is provided. It has near zero environmental impact which implies that its positive buoyancy prevents the submarine from landing onto the reef. It is light weight which keeps the ocean undisturbed. This vehicle is only available if you rent Necker Bille. The weekly rate is U.S. $88,000. Also it will cost an U.S. $25,000 per week.
