Engineers have been working on future models of all kinds of things. They are trying to make them lighter and easier to use. They have just put in a button into this vehicle, which switches it from a two-seat car into a aircraft in about 15 seconds. The wings simply fold in or open out depending on what the driver wants. Unlike other airplanes it runs on unleaded fuel, so it can be refueled at any normal gas station.
It is fitted with a 100 horsepower engine, it can fly the distance of 500 miles on a single tank of gas and drives at a speed up to 115 mph. However the company had a hard time fulfilling all the safety regulations whilst to maintain the vehicle's weight under the requires 1,320lbs.
I think that this is much better than having a car, or being in an airplane knowing that an airplane wight tons more. This would be much better to have in the future because you can buy one and fill it up with gas easily and instead of using an airplane which pollutes the air and cars too, u can have one that doesn't do that as much as an airplane. Wouldn't it be cool if you or your parents had one of these? They could fly you to school!
i'm thinking that I would love to have one of these. Wouldn't it be great to be able to go to the sea whenever we wanted from Belgrade?
