Abstract
Aviocar or PTFV is a Personal Transport Flying Vehicle that is capable of driving on the road like any other sport utility vehicle and fly for a sit distance between two major points like any other small executive jet without using any airport facilities. Aviocar is designed to be driven in a city powered by light weight electrical hybrid (mix) engine and in the air powered by two small size jet engines. The aviocar is a "transformer" vehicle in SUV shaped body with added features such as retractable wings, fin, stabilizers and retractable jet engines in such designed aerodynamically to be capable of flying for medium range distance between cities. It must be no more than 8" feet wide and 30" feet long over all to be practical. The frame is made of very light weight material, but strong enough to withstand side and frontal impact, hard landing and the weight of the load.
The Aviocar meets all of the above criteria by using an enhanced normal car shaped body designed aerodynamically to maximize the lift ability of said vehicle. The Aviocar utilizes a novel aerodynamic design that can function at a high angle of attack to optimize low speed lift while still presenting minimal resistance to airflow at high speeds. Moreover, the design features allow it to function in the roadway as a car and in the air as a craft.

Description
Subject-matter of the invention: It's a personal transport vehicle that is capable of flying between to major point like; Ottawa - Toronto and can stop in between if the facilities are available.
Specification:
Aviocar or PTFV is a Personal Transport Flying Vehicle that is capable of driving on the road like any other sport utility vehicle and fly for a sit distance between two major points like any other small executive jet without using any airport facilities.
Aviocar-PTFV is designed as road able car or SUV that has normal air resistance which keeps it on the ground up to the speed limit in which it has been designed to go and the maximum wind to withstand. Over all aerodynamic shape it's beneficiary for Aviocar on the road and in the air.
Aviocar is designed to be driven in a city powered by light weight electrical hybrid (mix) engine and on the air powered by two small size jet engines.
The frame is made of very light weight material, but strong enough to withstand side and frontal impact, hard landing and the weight of the load.
Which is made of Carbon fiber with ultra-lightweight, high-tech design and by placing the engine behind the cockpit to achieve a weight distribution that makes the car extremely aerodynamic in the air and stable on the road?
RANG AND USE OF AVIOCAR:
The maximum rang for Aviocar in the air is about 500 miles at cruising speed between (180 to 315 miles/hr) at an altitude of (1500 to 5000 feet). During flight this vehicle is designed to be flown by pr-programmed computer that will decide the altitude base on destination choosing...
exp: (Ottawa to Toronto it will go up to 5000 feet in a speed of 180 to 315 miles/hr).
The computer program will give options on a touch-on screen to chose your destination from pr-set destination that has been calculated from the runway you are standing on, by using GPS built in the car and two homing devices that is built in both end of the runway or manually by trained pilot, to be flown between two major points with option to stop in between ...
Exp: (from Ottawa to Toronto you will have an option to stop in two major point if chosen it before take-off).
The flight will be in controlled airspace in straight line with minimal maneuver, parallel to major highway, like taking a trip from one major city to another major city but instead of driving on the highway you will be flying over the highway.
Landing will be in a small runway between (900 to 1500 feet) built parallel to the highway at the edge of the city.
After landing it will take the vehicle few minutes to go back to a normal car configuration allowing it to be driven on the highway and on a city street with the traffic.
Aviocar will not require to use any airport facilities or to contact any air traffic controller, unless the highway passes by an airport and the vehicle is in an emergency stress.
The vehicle will be equipped with transponders making it visible to the radar and air Data Computers, flight Directors, and autopilot which will be controlling each leg of the trip.
Aviocar-PTFV usefulness comes in so many ways. A trip between two major cities that will normally take fife hours will be cut to a quarter of the time, without the need to go through airports and lost of bags and time.
Aviocar will be useful to executives who would like to be in two places in short times, and since Aviocar uses triangle system like for example if you are leaving Ottawa on the touch-on screen you will have the option to go to Toronto or Montreal within Canada. Another example; the east cost of the U.S from Main to Virginia, you will have the option of choosing in any set of three Exp: (Boston, Newark and Baltimore) WINGS
RETRACTABLE WINGS:
The wings will be retractable in two positions:
1) 1/4 inch of the end portion of the wing wil I retract inside the main body of the wing. This makes the wing shorter than during flight.

RETRACTABLE WINGS:
The wings will be retractable in two positions:
1) 1/4 inch of the end portion of the wing wil I retract inside the main body of the wing. This makes the wing shorter than during flight.
2) The length of the wing will be the same length between the front and back wheel. That design features allow the wing to be retracted inside the body of the Aviocar. This keeps the wings stored in safe area away from the outside aliment during driving.
RETRACTABLE STABILIZER AND FIN:
The back of the Aviocar is egg shaped for aerodynamic design presenting minimal resistance during flight and storage facilities for the fin and the stabilizer during driving. Retracting the stabilizer and the fin will be in two steps:
1) the stabilizer will come downward in down right position to the fin and lineup with the rudder.
2) Than the fin attached with the stabilizer elevator and rudder will retract inward to the back of the Aviocar, this mechanism puts the whole tail of the aviocar underneath the back of the two passenger seats.
Boundaries of patent: Retractable wings, retractable stabilizer and fin, retractable engines and the martial the body is composed of and over all aerodynamic shape.
