Inventors have been tried to make flying cars since 1930s, according to Robert Mann, a airline industry expert. But Mann thinks Terrafugia has come closer than anyone to

make the flying car into a reality. The govemment has already permitted the company to use special materials to make them easier for the vehicle to fly. The Transition is now going on crash tests to make sure it meets federal safety siandard.
