Milner AirCar

The patented Milner AirCar will be a completely self-contained four-door, four to five-seat advanced-composite road-able aircraft (flying car) with foldable main wing in the rear of the vehicle and a canard in the front.

In ground mode, the Milner AirCar will operate as an automobile and be about the same size as the Toyota Corolla or Honda Civic. A separate 40hp engine and transmission will power the wheels on the ground.

The non-retractable wheels extend from the 54” wide fuselage. The front wheels have double a-arm suspension, and the rear wheels are located in the wing just inboard of the first wing fold. When changing to air mode, the rear wheels will pivot forward so less weight is carried by the front wheels and the vehicle has additional ground clearance. At the same time, the front wheels will pivot downward to keep the vehicle level.

DARcorporation is proud to be involved with the research, design and analysis of this exciting flying car!

Jim Milner founded Milner Motors in 2005 to develop innovative transportation solutions. Based in Vancouver, Washington and Bethesda, Maryland, we believe that a truly clean-sheet approach to vehicle design can produce commercially viable vehicles that respond to today's environmental and energy needs in a way never before possible.
