Experiments with Flying Cars

From Inventor Spot:

When most people think of flying cars, they think of the Jetsons TV show, and speculate that, maybe one day in the far-off future, people may drive flying cars. You might be surprised to know that flying cars have been in development since the 1930s - even before the Jetsons.

Maybe it shouldn't be that surprising, though. After all, we have cars, and we have planes - is it that far-fetched to combine the two? There is serious research going on today to investigate the possibilities for flying cars. In preparation for the future, here's a look at some of the most famous flying cars during the past century.
