Anyone stuck in a traffic jam has had the same wish...to own a car that can lift off of the ground and zoom ahead of the pack. For decades, inventors and engineers have attempted to make that dream a reality, and they're closer than you think. Join us as we examine flying car designs of the past and present: the good, the bad, and the bizarre. See how modern technology has brought us closer than ever to putting cars in the air and flying machines in every garage.
Imagine a car that can lift off from your driveway and take you anywhere you want to be. What was once science fiction is now fact thanks to the tireless efforts of designers and engineers, who are redefining what automobiles can be. In this episode, we show how cutting edge VTOLs (Vertical Takeoff and Landing Aircrafts) are assisting law enforcement and the military, and may one day change the way we go to work, run errands, or simply go for a joy ride. Thanks to evolving technology and innovative designs, the sky is quite literally the limit.
