Is a Flying Car About to Take Off?

. . . Terrafugia Inc., a company founded three years ago by graduates from the Massachusetts Institute of technology (MIT), is in the process of building a prototype of The Transition, a 19-foot, two-seater the company describes as a roadable light-sport aircraft. And it's focused on building something that can take to the roads as easily as it takes to the skies. . .

You're right-- they need to price it higher if it's going to have appeal as a status symbol.

I agree. Although it would be kind of a good equalizer, were it to replace ground-level cars. The rich would have an equal chance of ending up with a car crashing through their roof to the poor.
