▍原文

A prototype flying car has completed a 35-minute flight between international airports in Nitra and Bratislava, Slovakia.

The hybrid car-aircraft, AirCar, is equipped with a BMW engine and runs on regular petrol-pump fuel.

Its creator, Prof Stefan Klein, said it could fly about 1,000km, at a height of 8,200ft, and had clocked up 40 hours in the air so far.

It takes two minutes and 15 seconds to transform from car into aircraft.
