It’s the ultimate way to beat traffic jams. Just take off and fly over them. A new $19,800 product called the Flite Bike kit transforms a Honda Reflex scooter into a flying motorcycle. The kit includes a custom Flite Bike airframe, ram-air powered parachute canopy wing and a 65-hp Rotax 582 liqiuid-cooled 2-cycle aircraft engine with a 4-blade composite prop. The assembled unit can carry the whole 550-pound Flight Bike assembly — not to mention a 250 pilot and — enough fuel to fly 2.5 hours. The company claims the rig represents “the world’s first roadable powered parachute.”
I’d give my first born child to get one of these machines. Safely lands without power and softer than a parachute, what more could one ask?

[...] We’ve previously discussed a flying motorcycle so I snapped a picture of this Super Sky Cycle yesterday at Sun-n-Fun. While I’m sure the builder will say this craft is “perfectly safe”… I’m sorry but my butt isn’t going in that seat. It looks really cool though! [...]
Did you know that the German Army, during the second world war had real plans for a motorcycle
that could fly and build it?
