The Terrafugia Transition is a two-seater plane that at the touch of a button converts into a road-legal car. The fantasy of spy novels and science fiction films is at last becoming reality with a vehicle that can turn from car to aircraft in 15 seconds.

Terrafugia's Transition will set them back a cool $200,000. "For an airplane, that's very reasonable, but for a car, that's very much at the high end," Dietrich admits. "It's got to start there. You can't make a $10,000 flying car yet. This is not going to change overnight and it won't become a mass-market item any time in the near future. But in the long term we have the potential to make air travel practical for individuals at a price that would meet or beat driving, with huge time savings. And that could be a real game-changer for aviation as well as driving."

Which of the following manufacturer announce its flying car in 2009?
