The Otto aviation Celera 500L is a high performance prototype bussiness aircraft, it first flew in 2018 and serial production is planned. The Celera is capable of reaching speeds of over 700 km/h with just 500hp on a piston engine in pusher configuration.
This simpleplanes version of the flying egg will only reach such speeds at altitude. It's surprisingly stable in the air. Take off with full flaps and let the plane lift off itself to avoid a tail(?)strike. Land with half flaps at 130-140 knots.
VTOL: flaps
