A Flying Car!


When I was a kid, I used to dream up things like this and draw them during dull classes. The flying car, the car that can swim under water, a city on the moon…
My friends and I truly believed that when we grow up, these things will indeed exist.
And now, look at this: The flying car, at last! Brought to us by Terrafugia, a company founded by award-winning MIT aeronautical engineers. It’s name is also a beauty, it is called “The Transition” and can actually legally drive on roads as well as fly. This is so cool!
The training only takes 20 hours and you can then fly your Transition and drive it home after landing. It costs around 200′000 Dollars.
Thank you, Pascal, who is always on top of all the trends in the aerospace industry.

Gabs schon mal in den Fünzfigern: Aerocar hiess es – und war ein Flop.

Be careful about calling it a flying car. The designers insist it is a roadable airplane. Flying cars haven’t succeeded because their designers were trying to make a car fly, rather than make an airplane drive, like the Terrafugia.
