According to the article, "The Alef Model A...also qualifies as an ultra-light vehicle, meaning it comes under the same legal classification as small electric vehicles like golf carts," and this means, "you do not need a pilot certificate (license) to fly ultralight vehicles."

- nkrisc 3y agoYes, I understand that. But practically speaking the fact that it is also a ground vehicle doesn’t seem very useful for that purpose. I’m sure you can buy a trailer and ultralight aircraft for far less than $300,000. You’re not going to use this “flying car” as you would a regular car. You won’t fly to the grocery store.
