テクノロジー｜万博での空飛ぶクルマ運航再開 / Technology | Resumption of Flying Car Operations at the Expo

Summary

The demonstration flight of the “flying car,” which is highly anticipated at the Osaka-Kansai Expo, is expected to resume on the 12th.

This comes after the aircraft, which had been operational since late April, was grounded due to a part falling off during flight. It was later determined that the cause was a design flaw, and measures have been implemented to prevent a recurrence. The safety of the flying car, which is being highlighted as a future mode of transportation at the expo, has been confirmed, and there are hopes for it to take to the skies once again.

Dialogue

This dialogue is fictional and based on the article.

Chako: Hey Log, do flying cars really fly?
Log: Of course! But there was a recent incident where some parts fell off, so I was worried about safety.
Chako: I see! So how do they ensure safety?
Log: Apparently, there was a problem with the design, and they’ve fixed it. That’s why they can resume operations now.
Navi: With the cause of the design flaw identified, we can expect measures to prevent recurrence in future operations.
Chako: That’s reassuring! I can’t wait to ride in a flying car!
