Key Takeaways:

Terrafugia is planning to show off the capabilities of the Transition flying car to the world at AirVenture Oshkosh, set for July 29 through August 4 this year. The Woburn, Massachusetts-based company announced it will take the unconventional aircraft to the skies around 8 p.m., just before the night airshow on Wednesday, July 31.

During a 20-minute demonstration, Terrafugia’s test pilot plans to unfold the airplane’s wings, drive it and fly it in front of the crowds. This is the first time in eight years of exhibiting at AirVenture that the Transition is scheduled to fly and the first time the flying car will be demonstrated in front of the general public. “It was a natural that when the time came to make flights before a large, public audience, joining with the EAA at Oshkosh was a perfect fit,” Terrafugia’s CEO Carl Dietrich said.
