When the fly cars? Bashny.Net

The American company Terrafugia announced that it has completed the theoretical part of the work to create a flying car. Now engineers have started to build a vehicle called Transition. As you know, this is the Transition will not only ride on conventional roads, but also fly.

According to the company Terrafugia, when they went to establishment of Transition in the following way - we decided to create a small plane, and then to transform it into a car. It turned out that this is nothing supernatural is not required. Just to make folding the wings, and the front wheels controlled.





In addition, it was necessary to consider the power distribution system of the engine (who, incidentally, produces only 100 hp) - during the flight all the energy should be spent on the screw, and when driving on asphalt drive car in motion will have front-wheel drive.

The creators of this transformer are assured that their car-plane can be stored in a standard garage, where piling big American SUVs. This means that the owners of this miracle of technology (the first buyers will receive Transition in 2009) will not have to hire a special place at the airport. As for the price of Transition, it is, in principle, not so transcendental for such development - $ 148 thousand.
