PAL-V Flying Car Passes Road Tests - AVweb

Jim H.: “Meeting European auto emissions/noise standards” would indeed be an accomplishment, but that isn’t what they claim - instead, they say that it will “pass all road admission tests.” The standards for motorcycles are far lower than they are for automobiles. This uses a chassis based on the Carver motorcycle, a three wheeler which allows the wheels to lean into the corners. Sadly, taking off from your street remains a fantasy - one of the limitations of flying cars is that it is generally a traffic violation to use public roads for runways.

Jim L.: Based on its Carver origins, the handling is said to be quite good - not to be confused with typical trikes based on modified bikes.

Thomas B.: You’re missing a distinct advantage of roadable aircraft - no need to pay for hanger rental (if, in fact, hangars are available!)
