O maşină zburătoare - este o imagine emblematică a viitorului. Dar, după 100 de ani de zbor şi inginerie auto, nimeni nu a ajuns cu adevărat  la miezul problemei. Pilotul Anna Mracek Dietrich şi echipa sa au modificat întrebarea astfel: De ce să nu construim un avion pe care-l puteţi conduce?

Anna Mracek Dietrich: Un avion pe care-l puteţi conduce

Instead of forcing cars to fly, the breakthrough came by making a plane that could drive. The result, a two-seat aircraft called the Transition, folds its wings and fits in a garage, operating both on roads and in the sky. Years of setbacks and engineering challenges revealed that meeting road regulations is often tougher than meeting those for flight. The project shows how rethinking old problems with fresh perspectives can make the impossible possible.
