fozjared -> waterman aerobile, other flying cars? (4/24/2008 7:01:41 PM)

i know of the waterman, and i have heard a story of a guy that built an ultralight that folded up to a motorcycle, other than those have there been any other SUCCESSFUL flying cars? i mean anything that can fly, then with wings folded or removed can legally go down the highway? i can't believe that there haven't been any that have been successful that haven't become extremely popular, which makes me think there were no successful ones...?

It's not the "successful" part. It's the fact that you can't build a vehicle that will do either task particularly well. Molt Taylor built his Aerocar, and it flew nicely. The performance, though, was nothing to write home about:
