Flying Car Finally MANUFACTURED !! Industrial Production In 2 Years by citizenisb: 11:11pm On May 08, 2013
The first flying cars are set to go on sale to the public as early as 2015.

Terrafugia has announced its Transition design, which is part sedan, part private jet with two seats, four wheels and wings that fold up so it can be driven like a car, will be on sale in less than two years.

The Massachusetts-based firm has also unveiled plans for a TF-X model that will be small enough to fit in a garage, and won't need a runway to take off

Whereas the Transition requires a runway, the TF-X can take off from a vertical position because of motorised rotors on the wings.

These rotors will work in a similar way to helicopter rotors.

Being able to take off from standstill means owners will be able to go from the road to the air straight from their driveways, car parks and even when stuck in traffic.

Although you will still need at least 100 feet in diameter in order to open the wings.

According to Terrafugia, the vehicle will carry four people 'in car-like comfort'.

It is expected to be able to fly, nonstop, for 500 miles.
