Samson Sky CEO Sam Bousfield, designer of the Switchblade Flying Car, was the honored recipient of the GSA Global Innovator Award 2025 at a recent Congressional Ceremony on Capitol Hill. The ceremony took place on Thursday, December 11th and was an ended by several members of the U.S. Congress.

Bousfield was awarded with the GSA Global Innovator Award 2025 by U.S. Rep. Danny K. Davis (IL), Member of the House Ways and Means Committee and Ranking Member of the Worker and Family Support Subcommittee. Following this, Bousfield was presented with a U.S. Congressional Medallion along with a U.S. Congressional Proclamation on by U.S. Rep. Jonathan L. Jackson (IL), Member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee and Member of the House Agriculture Committee.

These awards recognize Bousfield and chronicle his leadership and achievements in the recent launching of the Switchblade Flying Car. The Congressional Proclamation states: “Bousfield had created what is arguably the only viable flying car ever produced. It meets three key requirements: high performance in both modes, reasonable price, and full protection of the wings and tail on the ground to provide safety and insurability while driving.”

Further, his recently released Vertical Take-Off (VTOL) vehicle designs have won support and admiration from leading logistics companies. Advanced aerodynamic engineering studies show the remotely piloted VTOL vehicles capable of storing records for VTOL capability.

The inspiring event was hosted by Dr. Vijay G. Prabhakar, Chairman of GSA Global Eye Magazine USA, a publica on which reaches tens of millions and recognizes exemplary work in transforming communities and advancing a broader spirit of empowerment and innovation. Bousfield was one of 20 awardees from across the U.S., all of whom are trailblazers being recognized by the U.S. Congress for achievements in their respective fields, and which are making a global impact.

“My basic purpose is simply to help people,” stated Bousfield. “I just have a technically oriented way of doing that. Switchblade helps people save half the time on their regional travel, so they’re spending less time on the road. This gives them more time to do what they want to do, whether it’s business or pleasure, or spending time with family.” He further stated, about his VTOL vehicle plans, “The VTOL aircraft will help businesses move their goods faster and more securely to keep up with the rapid pace of the electronic age.”

The Switchblade Flying Car, which had its successful official First Flight in Nov. 2023 is a hybrid electric vehicle with sports car performance, accelerating from 0–60 mph/97 km/h in 5 seconds with a top speed of 125 mph/201 km/h.
