French aviator Bruno Vezzoli’s successful trip of 36 miles started from an abandoned military runway. Staring from Ambletuese, France and landing in Dover, England, his conveyance for travelling was a ‘flying car’ of sorts, named ‘Pegasus.’

The flying vehicle was produced by entrepreneur Jerome Dauffy. The inventor says he is inspired by the writings of Jules Verne, and his ambition was to create a ‘flying machine’ that could travel around the world in 80 days. Although he may sound like an old-fashioned dreamer, but the miraculous invention could travel around the world in less than 3 days.

Pegasus is a single-seat sort of a buggy which operates with the help of a propeller for paragliding and a huge parachute for the landing purpose. It can also be driven on land because of its motorized paraglider capability. And it also comes with a sea-rescue gear.

“I would say that the biggest risk, just like with any engine-powered machine, would be a breakdown,” Vezzoli said in an interview. “Usually you land on the ground, but in this case, we would have to do a sea-landing.”

Although this ‘flying machine’ has an awkward take-off, but once it’s in the air, she flies pretty well.
