Those are large wings. Either they retract into the car limiting interior space or they just fold up and make the car look like a resting butterfly when it’s driving about.

Going to have to work on the ground speed. 35 mph is way to slow for any highway. bigger engine, supercharged. Looks kind of long, might be hard to park. Still pretty interesting.

We are living in the future
I’ll tell you how I know
I read it in the paper
Fifteen years ago
We’re all driving rocket ships
And talking with our minds
And wearing turquoise jewelry
And standing in soup lines
We are standing in soup lines

Ride along in an airplane and had an amazing experience? The first airplane flight I took, I had to jump out of the SOB. Hand the boy a parachute.

Exactly. It is just another airplane.

The future of civilian flight probably looks more like this.
