Flying Car About to Take Off?

MIT scientists take another step towards aero-auto hybrids by producing the first automated folding wing for light sport aircrafts. For many years researchers believed aero-auto hybrid vehicles would be commercial failures; however, MIT scientists say they are on the way to overcome existing problems. The team hopes to use ‘Terrafugia‘ which was manufactured in 2006 and displayed as the world’s first automatic folding wing, to complete a roadworthy aircraft within a year. See the demo Video
