Transition Light Sport Aircraft with Foldable Wings

The Transition sport aircraft design from Terrafugia promises to take away a lot of hassles faced by modern day pilots. The aircraft named The Transition is a design that provides the convenience of being able to fold the wings while driving on any of the surface road. So, from the confines of the cockpit, one can easily stow away the wings while the aircraft is on the road and deploy the same for the flight is all done on a click of a button thus, giving solution to the issues faced by pilots like uncertain weather, ground transportation, rising costs etc. Quite an innovative product one must say!

This is great. I'd love to see this refined to a more simplistic design. Somehow lose the wings and use another form of propulsion. Make it less bulky, and more like a real flying car. Still, awesome!
