Slovakian Flying Car

Flying car or a combination of cars and airplanes have a lot created. Although in practice it is still difficult to apply in the real world, no one has even sold. However, this flying car is different.

Currently Slovakia has created a flying car, where the development process takes up to two decades and called it as Aeromobil. According to the inventor, Aeromobil would be the most practical combo flying car we have ever seen.

As reported by Carscoop on Monday, November 4, 2013, Aeromobil which is the work of Stefan Klein, a Slovakian inventor is working on much the same principles as other similar vehicles, but has been built with realistic real-world feasibility.

You can drive it out of the regular parking lot, with a wingspan of 8.2 m (26.9 ft) folded, and fly use the highway as a runway, then if you enjoy your flight, don't forget find the nearest airstrip to land. As you may notice the Aeromobile doesn’t climb more than 3.05 m (10 ft). There are two reasons for that,

1. Air regulations dont permit any vehicle air space without a bunch of licenses, checks and other jargon.
2. This is Aeromobil 2.5 Version has some handling glitches were are expected to be solved by version 3.

Needless to say even without the air height we can clearly see that had the pilot so wished, the car would have climbed higher. Naturally this being the prototype, a commercial model would be infinitely better.

Its empty weight is 450 kilograms (992 lbs), before the added capacity of two adults and fuel. The flying car uses a Rotax 912 engine that require 91-octane fuel and capable produced a power of 100 hp, which is distributed to the two front wheels or rear propeller, which can be selected simply by pressing a button.

The Aeromobil's top speed is reportedly 200 kph (124 mph) in the air, and a little over 160 kph (100 mph) on the ground. it has a cruising range of 700 km (430 miles) while airborne, or 500 km (310 miles) while earthbound. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES  | AEROMOBIL | CARSCOOP | MOTOR AUTHORITY]
