Any car manufacturer will be able to convert any mass-produced model into a flying car. The flight platform can be a quadcopter for short VTOL flights, or a fixed wing aircraft for long-distance high speed flight.
Bigger platforms will fly regular family, executive and sport cars.
Analysts with Morgan Stanley expect urban air taxis to be common by 2040, with the global market projected to be 1.4 – 2.9 trillion USD by then.
Flying cars have been flying and developing for over 110 years, since the days of Henry Ford. Many models have been manufactured and even flown, however, not a single unit has been sold.
Flying cars of the Integral type failed due to lack of practicality and extremely high price.
Flying cars of the Modular type failed for economic reasons, because a particular flight system fitted only a particular car. It was not possible to fly several types of cars on same flight platform. A lack of universality.
The recipe for success:
Modular – Separation between the car and the flight platform
Universal – the ability to connect numerous models of cars to the same flight platform
The consumer will buy a flight- adapted car, and rent a flight platform, for Intercity or a last mile solution.
AeroMule will manufacture flight platforms (Eagles) to carry mass-produced vehicles, which have been adapted to be flying models. An international franchise system will be established to provide local flight platform rental services.

A coupling mechanism capable of being lowered and raised. The connection is simple and does not require an accurate and complex autonomous access system. It makes it easier to deliver cargo payloads.
Bigger platforms will be able to fly regular production cars.
An adjustable landing gear allows landing and takeoff from any surface, while keeping the aircraft horizontal.
This is significant not only at the routine operational level, but also in the possibility of making a safe emergency landing anywhere. This greatly expands the flight envelope and possible routes.
