Description
Buy your own flying saucer for £65,000A flying saucer which glides up to 10 metres off the ground and carries two people could be yours for £65,000.
The saucer is powered by eight engines and can reach speeds of over 50mph as it moves gracefully through the air.
The bizarre flying pod, which is the size of a small car, is even able to land on skyscrapers - should the need arise.
It can take off and land vertically, like a helicopter, but it is almost noise-free and has been described by passengers as being "like a magic carpet ride."
US company Moller International has begun manufacturing the flying saucer and says it has completed more than 200 successful test flights.
The firm is so confident in its flying ability that it says it welcomes "potential military and/or para-military applications" and also thinks the saucer could be used for border patrol.
Company founder Dr Paul Moller calls the craft "the ultimate off-road vehicle" as it is able to travel over any surface.
