USA: World's First Flyng Car, the "Terrafugia Transition"
An Alpha-Beta Probe was used to gather extensive flight data. Humanity has been clamoring for a flying car for decades. Now the dream may become a reality. The car won't look quite as cool as the silver DeLorean from "Back to the Future," but the Terrafugia Transition isn't just a movie prop. It's the real deal. This week, the vehicle got the OK from the Federal Aviation Administration to classify itself as both a car and a "light aircraft." The light aircraft designation is important because planes with that classification require prospective pilots to have only 20 hours of flying time. Less training equals more sales. You can watch the Transition in action below. Coming to a road (and airstrip) near you for about $194,000. USA-06/07/2010./Credit:ADC-DIFFUSION/SIPA/1007071234 (FOTO: DUKAS/SIPA)

The Transition uses high-octane unleaded auto gas. Humanity has been clamoring for a flying car for decades. Now the dream may become a reality. The car won't look quite as cool as the silver DeLorean from "Back to the Future," but the Terrafugia Transition isn't just a movie prop. It's the real deal. This week, the vehicle got the OK from the Federal Aviation Administration to classify itself as both a car and a "light aircraft." The light aircraft designation is important because planes with that classification require prospective pilots to have only 20 hours of flying time. Less training equals more sales. You can watch the Transition in action below. Coming to a road (and airstrip) near you for about $194,000. USA-06/07/2010./Credit:ADC-DIFFUSION/SIPA/1007071234 (FOTO: DUKAS/SIPA)
