Hey,
The Bad Guy was probably thinking, "I can't get rid if this guy. What part of "No, I won't go out with you!" does he not understand? Now, he's stalking me. I'll give him credit, he is both persistent and inventive!"
John Stokes
p.s. Imagine showing up at your local flying site dress liked this Captain America?!?

the guy driving the wagon was the guy in *The man with the Golden Gun* in the James Bond film. I bet the hang glider gave him the idea to have the flying car scene in Man with the golden gun lol even though the car was only a model at the time. However a while back they did in fact make a real flying car different than this one. I seen it fly over an RC Event one year in Orlando as it made a few passes and then left the area.

PS, your drawing is coming along just fine and is looking really really good.
I'll be posting it on here.

Here's a flying car at the air races in 2009. Was the one you saw one of these?

Captain America quit being a hero a few years back but kept on flying hang gliders. These days he goes by capTIM America.

Paul H...
It was kind of like that but the one I seen was back in the early 80's. I do remember it had 4 wheels just like this one and was a very small car.
I'm not sure about the tail end though as I don't remember it that well but I'm pretty sure it had a front mounted engine and prop. I'm trying to remember but it was so long ago and the pilot didn't get too low so it was more of a profile view but close enough to see the colors of it. The body of the car was a dark green too but all this was on an overcast day too and no sun out at all, all gray actually.
Maybe this is it revamped by the same guy or new owners! It was close to this one though so I would bet this might of been it at the time, if this car was around back then. I've never seen any other flying car anywhere.
Thanks

That car is from quite a while back. They built six of them in 1949.
Here's a link to a youtube video of it at the races.

It looks like they trailered it there instead of flying it.
