Cars can fly on land and fly over long only in the story or science fiction film. However, advances in technology are transforming the imagination into reality.

Steve Saint, director of I-Tec, makes the 'flying car' Maverick, which is a pilot family. 'I grew up in the Amazon rainforest of Ecuador, where there are no roads. There either fly or die, ' he said. In order to help himself to travel in the most difficult terrain, he came up with the idea of making a flying car. The invention of Saint was born and was named Maverick. 'It's basically a car, but it can fly. It takes a few hours to get a handle on the car , Saint said.

The Maverick can reach speeds of up to 150 km / h on conventional roads. When it comes out, it looks like an umbrella, it starts to fly. Maverick can reach a height of 100 m with an average speed of 65 km / h. Cars do not fly too fast or too fast. Saint says Maverick's goal is to serve the people of the border, used in rescue or military operations. Saint is seeking markets in the US to commercialize his invention.
