“You’ll park it at your house, drive it to the nearest airstrip, unfold your vehicle, take-off, fly 500km, land again, and drive to your final destination.”
Flying cars have long been the poster child for the future - a sign that we’ve reached an incredible milestone in technological advancement. But that vision of the future has been confined to science fiction for many decades - until now.
PAL-V is building the world’s first road-legal flying car, and it’s extremely close to liftoff. The aim is to make general aviation practical for everyday mobility. In this episode we sit in the driving seat of the stunning PAL-V Liberty, a car that flies like a gyroplane. We meet PAL-V’s marketing director, Joris Wolters, who explains the engineering that’s gone into developing the Liberty, and what the car is capable of.
We also hear from Mark Lobo, who heads PTC’s Windchill product lifecycle management Division. He explains how PAL-V uses the PLM solution to deal with its rapid growth and strict data compliance needs.
