Incoming Chinese carmaker Xpeng

Australian firm Pegasus Aerospace Corp received airworthiness certification from CASA for its driveable Pegasus E flying police car last year

you would need a pilot’s licence – not simply a car licence – to be able to eventually fly the X2 in Australia.

likely to be bungled in red tape for some time before it could take to the skies

We can take orders.... you can secure one with a fully refundable $100 deposit.

So I guess a more accurate headline would be this:

"Australia's" "first" "flying car" "now" "on sale."
