Parajet skycar deliveries are now scheduled for 2012
The Parajet SkyCar in “fly mode” is suspended by the latest ram-air wing and capable of take-off from a field or airstrip in less than 200 metres. It will be easier and safer to fly than any other aircraft, as it has no pitch control and therefore impossible to stall or dive. Should the engine fail, the pilot would simply glide down into the nearest field or strip of sandy desert.
Parajet Skycar and Terrafugia Transition’s roadable plane were delayed from 2010
