Car that becomes a plane within 30 seconds.

Airport parking will become a thing of the past if the Transition flying car ever catches on.

Telegraph-UK-It can fly for 450 miles at more than 115 mph, can drive at motorway speed on the ground and launches from from road to air in less than 30 seconds.

It runs on unleaded petrol from any normal filling station.

The first Transition took to the air a Plattsburgh in New York State.

The roadable aircraft is categorised as a light sport plane and owners will need a sport pilot licence to fly it.

A 7,000 deposit will get you on the list for one of the first production versions being made by Terrafugia of Boston in Woburn, Massachusetts. The full estimated price is around 140,000.
