1 FEB 07: A CAR FOR THE SKY

AN industrial design student has put together this vision of personal helicopter travel for the future.
Elisabeth Soós has just graduated from University of Applied Sciences in Graz, Austria and built this one-metre long scale model with the help of BMW.

Elisabeth, who did her internship at BMW Designworks, California said,"It's not an official BMW project but it was a cooperation with BMW - that means I could use their milling machines, the help of their engineers and we had group discussions.

"I wanted to make it a little bit like a 'car in the sky'. It's for private use and a two-seater... a luxury tool to lift off the ground. I started with the seating position and asked myself how it feels to cruise through the air and enjoy flying. So I built a big glass cockpit and chose leaned-back seats for comfort."
