The Wagner FJ-V3 Aerocar was design by Alfred Vogt of the Helicopter Technik Wagner company in the era of space-age futurism. It looked slightly like the Jetsons flying car, with a large bubble cockpit, tailfins, and disproportionately small wheels for a car. The Aerocar used counter-rotating rotors so no tail rotor was required. On ground propulsion to the wheels was through a hydraulic linkage to a Franklin 6AS-335-B 260hp (190 kW) engine #aerocar #helikoptertechnikwagner #prototype #helicopte
