I remember while growing up, I watched a movie that I won't forget for a long time. I remember vividly how this particular movie took me to the fantasy world.
What was peculiar about this movie? - It was the flying car in it.
The movie is none other than the popular 1989 blockbuster
"Back to the Future Part II".

Anyone that has watched that movie will know exactly how sweet it is to fly in the skies in a car. How close are we to having cars fly in our skies?
INTRODUCING AEROMOBIL: The Flying Car
AeroMobil is an unbelievable car. It's a real flying car, with all that a car and an airplane have to offer. With this car, you have a choice: hit the road or fly in the skies.
Whether to stay on the road like other cars or fly in the air like an airplane; the choice is ultimately up to you. No matter how you wish to use this awesome futuristic car, AeroMobil will always turn heads.
I know most people find flying to be far more exciting than driving on the road. Check out the video proof of AeroMobil actually flying in the sky.
The team behind this futuristic innovation is based in central Europe and has been working on various prototypes of the AeroMobil since 2010.
The latest version is Aeromobil 4.0 with more advanced features over the first three versions. AeroMobile 4.0 is a hybrid electric car on the ground and gasoline-powered when in the air.
The vehicle can travel up to 100 miles per hour for more than 400 miles on the road and in the air, it can fly non-stop for almost 500 miles while cruising at speeds of up to 160 miles per hour.
AeroMobil is the size of a standard pickup truck which makes it easy to park the car into any standard parking space; the size makes it easy to be used like any other cars on the road.
IS THE AEROMOBIL SAFE FOR THE SKIES?
Safety is the first challenge that will accompany this innovation. I the future, the AeroMobil can be made legal for the public use on the roads; I am not sure if the FAA will want to risk having those cars fly in the skies.
Although the company has started the pre-order and projected to start delivering by the year 2020. I believe every driver of this unique car will need to be a certified Pilot to keep the sky safe again.
This mini-plane can take off from any Airport or from any grass strip or paved surface just a few hundred meters long.
