1. Slovak designers started working on the first AeroMobil back in 1990. The second project cost them 15 years - from 1995 to 2010, but it also had to be brought to perfection for another three years. AeroMobil 3.0, shown in October this year, according to experts, has good chances.
2. To date, AeroMobil 3.0 is one of the most completed flying car projects.
3. AeroMobil 3.0 can only be competed with by the American company Terrafugia with folding wings Transition, which the Americans promise to start producing on order next year.
4. The Rotax 912 engine is capable of accelerating AeroMobil 3.0 up to 160 km/h on the highway, up to 200 km/h in the air.
5. AeroMobil 3.0 is economical: using regular gasoline, it spends 8 liters / 100 km on the ground, and 15 liters per hour in the sky.
6. Power reserve on the highway - 875 km. In airplane mode, AeroMobil 3.0 is capable of flying 700 km.
7. Of course, AeroMobil 3.0 does not involve bold flights over traffic jams. Rather, this is a solution for those who want to get to the nearest airfield that is somehow suitable (the device can take off even from a dirt strip) and go flying.
8. The company today faces not only technical problems that will inevitably appear after lengthy tests, but also marketing ones. So far, no one undertakes to predict whether the market today is ready for such aircraft.
