Want to pull up in your driveway and fold up your wings after a hard day’s work and a quick commute where you had no traffic? The Terrafugia Transition is your answer for less then you might think. $194,000 gets you in line to own one of these recently approved by the FAA “light aircraft” car combinations.
Though it weighs in at 120 lbs over the legal weight limit for light aircraft, the FAA exempted it. The extra weight is from safety equipment like airbags and crumple zones required for automobiles. It’s said that 75% of your risk operating one is incurred on your first flight. The new FAA label requires only 20 hours of flying time.
Lessons, solo, done.
