great invention! would be better to escape Police extortions at road blocks

One will just fly on sighting road blocks ahead. e make sense!

Lol

Kinda reminds me of the concept flying car in Sikiru Ayinde Barrister's music video, Fuji Precaution!

While here the government is chasing hungry palliative looters. This is d worst time for me being a Nigerian honestly.

Lagosians this is not for you ooooo.

Make fuel just no go finish while you are cruising over the lagoon trying to beat third mainland bridge traffic

Hahaha this man

Won't we get accidents? We sure know the road is not 100% safe because of unforseen circumstances. Now I could be in my house and one yeye car will come crashing in... Maybe because engine spoilt

It requires a runway to fly so it's useless.


986ft of a TRUNK A road is ALL IT NEEDS.

So what I've been watching on science fiction movies (Sci-fi) is now turning into a reality? I'm awed ... Thanks to Baba God for life

I swear,most of the stuffs we see in Hollywood movies especially action and sci-fi movies are turning into a reality.We will soon see shoes and bikes that can make you fly.Technology is great.

juniorstar:
I have always waited for this day to see a flying car, but its gonna be expensive no doubt, e fit enter $200k and above.

It will surely be very expensive,maybe more expensive than Bugatti and those top cars.Many people may not be able to buy it but i know there will be something like a park to get a short ride on the air,just the way there are places where you can have a short horse ride.

The company says that u can fly it to supermarket, office etc......... But have they told us the danger in it, why up till now fly cars have not yet been approved for public used, well these are the reasons.

Firstly, there is no navigation system worldwide that can direct you to fly on any random air space as you wish.. that means you must follow an approved government map out air route design for commercial aircraft.... Which means u can not land on your office anywhere anyhow.
Else we will witness multiple air accident because there is no map out route and many flying cars owners want to fly at the same time and the airspace is open to all.

The owner/pilot can easily intrude into military airspace and could be mistaken by the radar as an enemy object.

Which busy road will the pilot/owner find that much space to drive at such high speed for a given period of time in order for the engine to gain enough power to fly?

What is the level of training that the owner will get in order to be certified ready to pilot this complex machine, because it involves driving and piloting..... Which will take into consideration various engine speed for different Operations, aerodynamic and control, navigation and instrumentation, weather report and consideration. Altitude navigation etc.

It is easier saying than done.......... We will get there but before that, so many things have to be in place and so many questions have to be answered

Runway is runway whether airport runway or field. The major goal for this invention is to beat traffic. Isn't it? Of what use is it then if you can't stay in the middle of a traffic and take off?

It can take off from major ways which will serve as runway, I nor any open space the length if it take of space, it does not necessary means airport runway.

You don't get my point. What I mean is, if this car was built to beat traffic, is shouldn't even need to roll one feet before take off. It should be like a helicopter. Stand one place and take off.

What if I drive ir and get stock in a traffic, should I need a free space to take it to the air?

Ok got your point. Like overseas, you have apps that shows you area of traffics, so you will be informed before hand and make a plan ahead. It's also good for like if you are working lets assume in VI, and you are Based in Ikeja, it should be a one way take off if you have already area if take off in Ikeja.

You're funny. How many can afford it? As it is now, how many people even have cars?

Ok thanks. Do one needs a licence to fly? Thinking of getting 1 when I grow up.

Professorcplus:
Meanwhile from air to road transformation. Truly Nigeria is blessed indeed

I thought we don't have an air carrier.

Not likely, but some country might require you get a microlight pilot license, but in Slovakia no.

Designed for Nigeria politifians.

Hambivert:
Sparogatively, if this AirCar enters Nigeria, our unfailing able police force and their now supposedly defunct SARS branch would also invent their own means of mounting roadblocks in the sky...

Those guys no dey use that #50 joke with anybody!

No word like sparogatively.

Oh boy, what a nice invention! but let's check if this can work in Nigeria.
1. How will the flying cars be coordinated? even on road, I don't trust car drivers, the way they zoom like flash on roads, what will now happen in the air? they will be moving and be hitting each other like missiles.

2. what of our high tension wires? the way flying cars will be hanging on them and we'll be plucking them like fruits won't be nice at all.

I hope all these are solved before they are presented for commercial use.

Is there regulation in place?

Not only roadblock Oga, you suppose say Air Block

I bet u that if they start using this flying car in Lagos, there will still be holdup and several accident in the air because they will still be impatient and in a hurry.
