Engine maker Rolls-Royce has designed a propulsion system for a flying taxi which it says could take to the skies as soon as early next decade.
The British firm said it had drawn up plans for an "electric vertical take-off and landing" vehicle, which could carry four to five people.
The vehicle could travel at speeds of up to 250 mph for approximately 500 miles, it said.
