ABSTRACT:
Flying car,roadable aircraft,dual-mode vehicle and other terms are used to
describe the all-purpose vehicle that can fly like an airplane and drive on the
highway like an automobile. Make it amphibious and we have the perfect all-
purpose vehicle! Nevertheless, this might be taking our ideas a bit too far.It
has long been the dream of aviation and automobile enthusiasts to have a
vehicle that will bring them the best of both worlds. Many drivers stuck in
rush hour traffic have fantasies about being able to push a button and watch
their car’s wings unfurl as they lift above the stalled cars in front of them.
Just as many pilots who have been grounded at an airport far from home by
inclement weather have wished for some way to wheel their airplane out onto
the highway and drive home. This yearning has resulted in many designs for
roadable aircraft since as early as 1906.
