Plot summary

Dr. Paul Moller grew up in British Columbia, Canada, and worked as a rocket scientist before he decided to build a flying car. He made his first attempts at the vehicle in the 1960s. Over the following decades he developed prototypes including the Skycar and Neuera, which take off vertically and fly above his California facility. The work brings technical and financial setbacks, and because no regulations existed for flying cars, he works with government agencies and aviation experts to show that his designs are safe. His company, Moller International, pursues partnerships and funding while he continues to refine the designs.
