It looks like a HOAX, the video doesn't show the vehicle in a test fly, or during a take off. 98% of the video either shows the vehicle going on the ground just like other non-flying cars or shows people discussing about a flying car.
- dools 15y agoIt shows the vehicle flying and landing. In order to be landing it must have had to take off at some point ...
- stretchwithme 15y agoAnd here it is taking off: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pN6IlPBNRMQ
- hasenj 15y agoWhy the downvote? it really does look like a hoax. Plus when people say "flaying car" I expect a sci-fi like flying care: that it can hover and fly vertically, not have a parachute-like thing attached to it. This one really almost looks like an april fools joke.
- gvb 15y ago"It looks like a hoax" is not a useful comment and has no research to back it up. The poster apparently did not even read the text under the linked video, which says "[T]he FAA has also issued the Maverick a S-LSA aircraft airworthiness certificate." It is highly unlikely the FAA would issue a S-LSA[1] aircraft airworthiness certificate to a hoax.
