Flying Saucers Go Into Production
A “flying saucer” that glides three metres above the ground and carries two people has gone into commerical production.
US company Moller International has begun to manufacture parts for its Jetsons-like personal flying pod, the M200G Volantor.
The M200G is the size of a small car and is designed to take off and land vertically.
Company founder Dr Paul Moller calls the craft “the ultimate off-road vehicle” as it is able to travel over any surface.
“It’s not a hovercraft, although its operation is just as easy,” said the aeronautical engineering boffin.
