Two weeks ago, we reported about developments with electric planes and flying cars. That technology could bring change to personal travel.
Last week, two companies, Kitty Hawk and Uber, announced their plans to bring flying cars to reality very soon. Sooner than you think, flying cars may appear in the sky. Imagine never having to worry about traffic, stoplights, or road construction. A flying car could get somewhere much faster than one traveling on the road. On the other hand, imagine having to avoid other things and other flying cars. Also, what if your battery dies when you are in the air? And, how will you know where to land?
Kitty Hawk is a start-up tech company supported by Google co-founder, Larry Page. Kitty Hawk president, Sebastian Thrun, helped start Google's self-driving car project. The car is electric-powered and moved by eight rotor blades. Kitty Hawk wants people to be able to buy its flying car by the end of 2017.
Kitty Hawk is making a list of people interested in buying the flying car. They must pay a deposit of $100. Those who get their names on the list early will receive $2000 off the final cost of the car. However, Kitty Hawk has not yet announced the price. Kitty Hawk expects its first flying cars will go on sale by the end of this year.
