Flying Car Prototype Takes to the Skies
Klein Vision?s Flying Car Prototype Takes to the Skies After Driving the RoadThe startup's prototype successfully completed its first flight in Slovakia last week.We may call them air taxis but let?s face it, flying cars are really just small airplanes at this point. That may be about to change, though, thanks to the Klein Vision Aircar, an aircraft that actually looks and functions like the vehicle you drive to work each day. Late last week, the Slovakian startup shared a video of the Aircar prototype successfully completing its maiden flight. The short clip doesn?t just show off the aircraft soaring through the sky; it also displays the vehicle?s driving capabilities. It looks as if the AirCar will be just as comfortable flying through the clouds as it is speeding across asphalt. This is likely due to the fact that the prototype is a road-ready car that can transform into a working plane with the touch of a few buttons. At the beginning of Klein Vision?s video, the futuristic-looking AirCar can be seen driving onto the tarmac at Piestany airport. The rear section of the car then slides back as two wings pop out of the car and begin to unfold. Once the wings are fully expanded, the prototype speeds off down the runway and takes off into the sky. It then flies around the airfield before safely landing back on the ground. Once the flight is complete, the wings retract back into the car, and it drives off. While the AirCar?s design leaves something to be desired?it looks lik...
