Flying Taxi from Airbus
This is not a set for the film “The Fifth Element”, but a presentation at the air summit in Toulouse of a “flying taxi” developed by the French company Airbus . The aircraft looks like a helicopter with blades like a spinner. The model has been nicknamed the “giant drone”, but officially it is the CityAirbus NextGen. It accommodates four passengers and has a top speed of 120 km / h. It is also an environmentally friendly transport: the “flying taxi” is equipped with an electric motor.
