The 2012 Transition Street-Legal Airplane is a practical answer to the futuristic concept of the flying car.
Terrafugia is a growing aerospace company founded by pilots and engineers from MIT. The company’s name is Latin for “escape the earth.” Terrafugia’s mission is to design and deliver revolutionary, practical air and land vehicles that provide freedom, flexibility and fun to their customers.
