Imagine a car that can also fly. Well, it is a matter of just five years when you could see your fantasy becoming a reality.
If you are dreaming of a car that can also fly in case of traffic jams, it could soon come true as the United States aviation authority has given its green signal for the commercial production of such a vehicle.
Dream of a flying car could become a reality soon.
The Flying Car can drive, fly, and automatically transform between the two in 60 seconds, could be on the road and in the skies as early as 2011.
The Transition combines the unique convenience of being both a car and a plane.
It has front wheel drive on the road and a propeller for flight. Both modes are powered by unleaded gasoline. The vehicle is expected to cost around Canadian $200,000.
If the automobile, which can transform itself from a two-seater road car to a plane in 15 seconds, survives its first test flight next month, it is expected to land in showrooms in about 18 months, The Sunday Times claimed.
In its flight performance, it can move up to a maximum speed of 180 km/h and minimum speed for level flight at 50 km/h.
