Photos: Brit travelling to Timbuktu in flying car Image 4

In the event of engine problems during the Skycar Expedition, the car will glide down to the nearest field or strip of sandy desert. Should a catastrophic wing failure take place, a ballistic reserve parachute will be deployed to bring the car and pilot down to earth.

During the expedition, a camera crew will record the team's adventures for use in a televised documentary about the car and its inaugural voyage.
