This paper is primarily concerned with the design and manufacture of a flying car and problem of traffic management in the world today.
A possible solution to this problem would be to design a flying or hovering car which will take the problem away from the overcrowded roads.
Given technological advances in aircraft construction, navigation and operation; flying cars or personal aircraft is not only a possibility but a necessity for the future.
The feasibility and viability of such a concept was investigated in terms of producing a conceptual design for a two-person carrying flying vehicle, manufacturing prototype, ground and in-flight testing.
Flying cars have featured heavily in science fiction writing and films for many years, however the idea, of actually building such a vehicle only came into fruition at the start of the twentieth century. The design was somewhat unsuccessful and therefore research was discontinued.
Production of other flying cars in US has been reported over the next three decades until recently.
Traffic congestion on roads all over the world is becoming an overwhelming problem. Larger roads and motorways are especially overused which causes the average speed of vehicles at peak times to be reduced to around 35 miles per hour in some countries. This, in turn, means that extra fuel is wasted and the exhaust emissions in the atmosphere increase rapidly.
One solution to the problem would be to merely build more roads, however this is a very expensive process and is not very viable in large built up areas.
An alternative to expanding current traffic networks would be to develop a new system of highways in the sky for a future flying cars.
