A plane crazy way to drive a car
By JO STEELE - Sunday, November 23, 2008
The perfect way to beat the traffic jams is tantalisingly close to production.
The Moller M400 Skycar is a four-seat motor which can unfold its wings in seconds and then soar through the air at up to 600kph (375mph) for a distance of 1,200km (750 miles).
It is designed to be far simpler to fly than a helicopter and it boasts that its fuel consumption is lower than that of a Land Rover or Porsche.
The Skycar has cost its Californian developers a reported £135million and is set to retail for £675,000 when it goes on sale in 2012.
