If you were that rich wouldn't you have a helicopter on the lawn or drive a standard Ferrari to the local airfield to board your helicopter/private jet/harrier and have another Ferrari waiting for you at your landing point ?

Stick a `certain badge` under the trailing edge of the wing - clamp one`s false teeth firmly onto it and `Mine`s better than yours` could be written in vapour contrails over the community.
It would be the other makes badge and owners teeth doing the writing... Could be rented out for advertising purposes while strutting to the paper shop for `Badge and Me Weekly`
;) (further attempt at humour 362b)
As for the Fiat .. sorry Ferrari ;)

Scoff all you like, but James Bond will have one.

No he won't.
He'll have an AM or BMW which has been worked on by Q, tested to destruction and works.
Failing that, a Ford Ka will be parked round the corner for a quicker than walking getaway though suspect it won't be as good as a 2CV round the olive trees :)

Can you only drive the car if you have a pilots licence? what about service/safety regime?
etc etc etc? cmon !

"The calculated airborne range is 75 miles" Great
|
|
So if based on a car like the Ferrari with road going aerodynamics that cause positive downforce due to airflow (i.e. an inverse wing) then surely a bad starting point for a flying car ;-)

"The calculated airborne range is 75 miles"
if the same propulsion system for road and air, then if you drive at all the range by air is less than 75 miles. Likewise if you fly at all you won't get very far afterwards on the road. I thought the Torygraph was better than this unless it's an early April 1st.

And it's hybrid electric... How green!
I think that I can safely say that the designer has never picked-up an electric motor that can produce enough power to lift 1.5tons vertically....

Nothing with a reasonable number of Euro Ncap stars is light enough to fly.
Where are the other end of the air ducts?
