The idea of flying cars, once confined to the realm of science fiction, is now steadily transitioning into reality. With rapid technological advancements and major companies like Uber, Airbus, and Boeing investing heavily in vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) vehicles, the future of urban air mobility is closer than ever. However, as these innovations progress, a critical question arises: how will flying cars navigate and integrate into existing airspace systems?

Imagine soaring from New York to London in less time than it takes to finish an average movie. NASA’s recent groundbreaking venture is aimed at revolutionizing transatlantic travel. They’ve embarked on the creation of a supersonic passenger jet that boasts a blistering top speed of Mach 4 (approximately 4,900 km/h). To put this in perspective, this not only doubles Concorde’s impressive Mach 2 (2,450 km/h) speed but also outpaces the famed SR-71 Blackbird spy plane that had a design speed of Mach 3.2 (3,920 km/h).
