The Terrafugia Transition

Awww, Looks like I missed Tech Tuesday. Hope you all are enjoying Geralds class as much as I did, and sorry I'm late on this but I guess Gerald can't really get mad at me anymore. =P
Just playin Gerald. I still read this blog so you cats in Street Tech Gen:13 better stay on your toes. In any case I wish I'da known about this yesterday but its better late than never.
Here Goes...

July 26, 2006 An interesting new flying car is being launched this week at Oshkosh. The Transition is a Personal Air Vehicle (PAV) designed to make general aviation more practical for personal transportation. From start-up company Terrafugi, the Transition drives like a car on public roads and can transition into an aircraft at the nearest airport by lowering its 27-foot wings and taking off. As an aircraft it has a top speed of 130mph, a range of 500 miles and can carry a payload of 430 pounds. One stop gives you over a thousand miles of range inside eight hours. Then you land and fold up the wings and you’re back on the road.

I want mine to be midnight blue though so I can blend in with the sky at night. Soo Tight. If you guys (or gals) would like to read more on this, you can find the complete article ---> Here
In the meantime I have an order I need to go place... mmm...bells&whistles...&missiles!
