If you think flying cars are a science fiction technology which might appear sometime in the distant future, think again. The age of the Jetsons is upon us and, believe it or not, some flying cars are soon going into mass production. Two real life flying cars, including the PAL V Liberty and the AeroMobil, were showcased at the Monaco Top Marques Auto Show. The PAL V Liberty is now for sale and first deliveries are expected by the end of 2018. The other flying vehicle on show is the AeroMobil. While the PAL V Libery has a retractable helicopter rotor, the AeroMobil has retractable wings and can take off and land from commercial airports and even from highways, if necessary.

AeroMobil has a flying range of 500 miles and can carry two passenger. It costs $1.3 million to pre-order, requires a pilot's license, and is only certified in Europe.
