Getting caught in a traffic jam just like what I commonly experience in Manila or those living in Los Angeles would make anyone wish that their car can fly. AeroMobil has finally found a way to make your wish come true. Imagine taking off and passing over the multitude of vehicles on your city’s highways. That would surely make you feel like Superman, sans the blue tights and cape.

This Slovakian company, headed by chief designer Stefan Klein, has worked more than 23 years to create an automobile that can fly. Finally, the first ever AeroMobil flying car will make its world premiere at the Pioneers Festival in Austria on October 29.

Klein and the rest of the team started with the AeroMobil 1.0 back in 1990. They finished the AeroMobil 2.5 prototype last year and the test flight was a huge success. The AeroMobil 3.0 production version is all set to hit the market place before this month ends.
