Where are the flying cars?

The Molt Taylor Flying Car Concept

There are two valid ways to make a practical flying car. One is to develop a combination car and plane and to certify it as one system under DOT, FAA and EPA. This includes the advanced flying automobile such as Branko Sahr’s project. It will require great investment to develop and will be very expensive. The other way is the Molt Taylor concept in which an existing DOT and EPA certified car is used as the ground vehicle of the flying car. A flight module is attached to this car which is certified by the FAA as an aircraft. It would be relatively inexpensive to develop and own. Initially, however, the AEROCAR 2000 will be available as an Experimental Aircraft under the existing homebuilt regulations of the FAA.

The car is the new Lotus Elise. It is a lightweight 1510 lb. two-seat roadster. The flight module is powered by a separate twin-turbocharged 2.5 liter V8 engine also produced by Lotus. It produces 350 hp, yet weighs only 491 lbs. complete."
