The Airscoot was a car made by the Wichita, Kansas-based company Aircraft Products in 1947 to fit the need for a small car that could commute to and from airports then be folded up and put aboard private aircraft. It was able to attain this goal by weighing a mere 72lb, and measuring only 37inches in length. Passenger and stowage accommodations included seats for two passengers and a luggage rack in front for two suitcases. Its one-cylinder, air-cooled engine claimed to be capable of 60mpgus, though the gas tank could only hold 3/10ths of a gallon. Little further information is available on this car.[1]
