In 1947, respected inventor/designer Henry Dreyfuss created the Convaircar, which looked a lot like a small sedan (轿车) with a single-engine airplane mounted on its roof. On the road, the plane elements could be towed behind the car. In the air, a fiberglass body kept things light. Sad...
During the night, the deep sleepers were subjected to 14 different recorded sounds, like street traffic, toilets flushing, and an airplane flying overhead. Next door, the researchers monitored their sleep patterns and brain waves.As expected, all of the participants slept relatively well, but ...
Aerodynamics play a huge role in circuit racing. And a rear wing the size of a small airplane can add plenty of downforce in the corners, allowing a racing car to negotiate fast corners at a much higher speed than a car with no wing. Simply, the airflow around the rear wing presses t...
The roadable aircraft is meant to be primarily an airplane but with the capability of being driven on roads to and from the airport. It must also be capable of getting the pilot and passengers to their desired destination on the highway when the weather prevents flight. As such, it is a...

According to Airhart Aeronautics, all the pilot has to do is push that stick in the direction they wish the plane to fly, such as when they're performing takeoffs and landings. An onboard computer system relays those flight commands to the airplane's engine and control surfaces via an ele...
In an engine, the linear motion of the pistons is converted into rotational motion by the crankshaft. The rotational motion is nice because we plan to turn (rotate) the car's wheels with it anyway. Now let's look at all the parts that work together to make this happen, starting with ...
That's because the A5's folding wings make it compact enough to fit on a trailer that you could tow with your truck or SUV. Icon, the company that makes the A5, is marketing this light "sport" airplane primarily as a plaything, not a workhorse for commuting or business trips. Company...
