Flying Car Woww

 

 

The Terrafugia Transition is classified as a light sport aircraft, but has been allowed an extra 110 pounds of weight by the Federal Aviation Administration to make room for more auto safety features like airbags and a structural cage

 

 

New modifications to Terrafugia's Transition "roadable aircraft" include an improved cockpit interface.

 

 

At just 19 feet long and 6 feet, 9 inches tall, the Terrafugia Transition is meant to be compact enough for suburban life

 

 

The Terrafugia Transition needs a runway for takeoff, which means that the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) isn't interested. The Department of Defense division is in search of someone to develop a flying car that doesn't require a runway.

 

 

 Terrafugia's Transition successfully completed a test flight last year near Plattsburgh International Airport in New York–distance and time not disclosed–that led to a recent set of improvements to bring it closer to market.
