Flying cars: How one company is prototyping “the future”

More tests are needed, but Terrafugia is on the right track: It’s not quite ready yet, but engineers have been hard at work perfecting the world’s first flying car. The “Transition Street-Legal Airplane” is expected to be released in 2013. ”With this flight, the team demonstrated an ability to accomplish what had been called an impossible dream,” said Terrafugia CEO and CTO Carl Dietrich. According to Computer World, the “Transition’s first flight reached an altitude of 1,400 feet above the ground and lasted eight minutes.” source
