Thread: Flying Cars on Indian Roads?

Three to four years down the line, don’t be surprised – if you come at a trendy car that zooms in the Mumbai-Pune Expressway and even takes to the skies when you enter the cities! This is not a science fiction movie or virtual reality game. It is something that is in existence – and now dubbed as: The Flying Car.

Now that's one super cool flying car! It's called the 'Transition' and the price is expected to be around $194,000.

2011 should be an exciting year, as that's when the Transition is expected to 'launch.'

There's more information about this 'roadable aircraft' on the Terrafugia.com website. You'll be able to drive/park it like any other car, and take off/land at any public use general aviation airport with at least 2,500' of runway.

What kind of training do I need to fly a Transition®?

Since it will be certified as a Light Sport Aircraft, the Transition® will require a Sport Pilot license or higher to fly. You will also of course need a valid drivers license for use on the ground.

Happy driving and flying!

BTW, I note that Frank Schilling's company owns FlyingCars.com.
