Milner AirCar
What do you think of when you hear “flying car”? The Fifth Element or some other sci-fi movie? Actually, the Milner AirCar is as real as it gets.
Designed by Milner Motors, the AirCar will be, according to them, a completely self-contained four-door, four to five-seat advanced-composite road-able aircraft (flying car) with foldable main wing in the rear of the vehicle and a canard in the front.
The AirCar will be able to cruise at speeds of 200 MPH for up to 100 miles, thanks to one or two engines with propellers or ducted fans producing 300 total HP. When not flying, the vehicle will be powered by a separate 40 HP Engine. The wings fold down so it can operate on roads and and it will be the size of a Toyota Corolla or Honda Civic.
If you’re interested in this, you can get a first glance at it at the New York Auto Show (March 21-30). The estimate price is $450,000, but you won’t be able to buy one for a while, as the aircraft needs to be certified for commercial production first.
