Kitty Hawk Flyer

Kitty Hawk, a company backed by Google cofounder Larry Page, is dedicated to dreaming up flying machines. This week, it released a video showing a prototype of an electric pleasure over-water craft. The Flyer does not require a pilot’s license, and learning to fly it is said to be a breeze. Kitty Hawk expects to start selling the Flyer by the end of 2017. You can already put down $100 to place your name on the waiting list and obtain a $2,000 discount on the finished machine.
