It’s the stuff of dreams for sci-fi fans.
A company say they have developed a Star Wars-inspired speeder bike that can zoom to 124mph.
Poland-based Volonaut says their Airbike is the first ‘hoverbike’ vehicle of its kind that does not use propellers to fly.
Incredible videos show someone sitting on the device as it appears to effortlessly glide through the air.
At one point it hovers remarkably steady as the rider lifts a hand to wave at the camera.
The firm says: ‘This groundbreaking design shares a lot of similarities to 'speeder bikes' featured in popular science-fiction movies.’
Fine technical details of the AirBike have not been revealed, with the company reporting the vehicle has ‘just come out of stealth mode development’ by Polish inventor and [url=https://volonaut.com/airbike]Volonaut founder Tomasz Patan.
However, describing it as a ‘superbike for the skies’, Volonaut say the AirBike is powered by jet propulsion.

If FAA allows them, I expect they'll have to fly from airstrips because of the jet propulsion.  Not something one wants on suburban streets!
