Jean-Michel Jarre, a French musician, is the first passenger in history to fly in an air car

A flying vehicle firm made history when they flew the first automobile with none other than the renowned Jean-Michel Jarre riding along as a passenger. The French electronic artist delighted in the unusual journey, taking spectators by surprise as he flew across the skies of Slovakia in KleinVision’s AirCar. Renowned for his laser show performances that draw millions of viewers worldwide, Jarre has consistently led the way in electronic and new-age music genres. He quickly seized the chance to conduct two trips in the flying automobile, demonstrating his support for emerging technologies.

Jarre posted a video of his incredible experience boarding the flying vehicle first, along with a kind remark on Instagram, describing it as an honorable moment. He went on to say that his next show, Bridge From the Future, was inspired by the thrilling encounter.

Being the first passenger in the AirCar by @kleinvision_official was an honor and an incredible experience! Future technologies that we previously only imagined are starting to materialize. Slovakia, in the center of Europe, is the birthplace of this innovation. The epicenter of many technological, artistic, and cultural revolutions that opened the door for contemporary innovation,” he said.

His admirers were clearly thrilled as well, referring to him as “lucky” to have had such an amazing experience.

Jarre saw the automobile’s conversion from a sports car to an airplane during the test drive at Piestany International Airport. Professor Stefan Klein is both the creator and pilot of it.

“You speak to the driver one second, and the next you are up there in the air,” he claimed in an interview with Sky News. A very remarkable encounter.

The business has unveiled an engrossing film that captures the historic occasion. It shows a sporty vehicle with wings tearing down a runway on four wheels before soaring into the sky. Remarkably, after a series of successful takeoffs and landing tests, the AirCar was granted flying permission in 2022. It made history as the first flying automobile to successfully complete an intercity trip in 2021, before reaching this milestone.
