From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Convair Model 111 was a prototype flying car, produced in 1946[1] alongside other attempts Convair made at a flying car, such as the Convair Model 106. The aircraft suffered issues with directional stability, rudder control, and issues with the engine cooling, and the project was canceled.[1]
