Flying Cars Hop Slightly Closer With FAA Weight Waiver

Posted by timothy on from the I-just-stick-to-low-altitude dept.

JimFive writes "For years we've been waiting for the flying car to arrive. The FAA has made an exemption that moves this one step closer to reality. Terrafugia has been granted a weight limit exemption for a 'Roadable Airplane.' Next up is passing the federal highway safety tests."

    That is a flying car. This is just an airplane that you can drive home to your garage so you don't have to pay exorbitant hangar fees.
