Waldo Dean Waterman was a man with a vision. He was born in 1894 and became quite interested in both airplanes and cars. In 1917, he built a flying car. It was exhibited, though it never flew. It had sparked his imagination however and he kept at it until he built one that flew. On the 21st in 1937, in response to the federal government’s call for the Model T of the air, Waterman’s dream of an airplane-car hybrid was realized when his Arrowbile took to the air.
