#Flying #cars have fascinated film-buffs, science geeks and motorsport enthusiasts for many years now. Many have imagined a car that can drive on the roads as well as fly in the sky. It seems that a #flying-car, as shown in sci-fi films, is set to ply on the roads sooner rather than later. A fully functional flying car has received legal approval to fly in the US. This flying car, known as Model A, has been developed by US-based Alef Aeronautics.

First time flying car okayed in US
The company recently announced that it has received the Special Airworthiness Certification from US government’s Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). This is a historic milestone as it marks the first time a flying #car has been certified in the US.

Alef Aeronautics have opened up about their special vehicle via an official statement. “The FAA is actively working on its policies for electrical vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) vehicles, as well as governing interactions between eVTOLs and ground infrastructure. Alef's Special Airworthiness Certificate, therefore, limits the locations and purpose for which Alef is permitted to fly," Alef Aeronautics said in a statement.
