Backyard Fliers - An Airplane In Every Garage (S03E11)

During the 1920s, as cars became accessible to nearly everyone, there was a rising fascination with creating a safe and affordable airplane that anyone could operate. This curiosity evolved into the concept of roadable aircraft—vehicles capable of driving on roads and then transforming into an airplane for the remainder of the trip. Although airplanes have yet to match the practicality of cars for family journeys, contemporary aviation presents thrilling possibilities for those looking to fly as a hobby.
