Skyrunner | True Flying Car

The Skyrunner is an all-terrain dune buggy that is also capable of true flight. Goes from 0 to 60 in about four seconds, has a max speed of up to 115mph, and can reach heights of up to 15,000ft. While airborne, it is capable of traveling at about 55mph, and has a cruise distance of up to 200 nautical miles. It costs upwards of $100,000. This information varies based on different models. Pilots can be licensed to drive the Skyrunner with only 12 hours of mandatory training. And, as a light airsport vehicle, this can be flown in (according to what I've read) more than 90% of all airspace.

  • My only gripe is, that's not really a [i]car[/i]. It's like a dune buggy that can fly. If the prospects of the EmDrive turn out to work in practice, that is when we'll see flying [i]cars[/i]. There would be no way to do it with today's technology though.
