Taylor was the creator of what was perhaps the most successful flying car ever developed and flown.
Accordingly he is revered by many as the patron saint of the
flying car movement. He loved to recount
stories about the plane--like the time he got a speeding ticket while driving
an Aerocar to an auto show. And once, while delivering an Aerocar to pilot
and actor Bob Cummings, Taylor made a spur of the moment stop at an Earl Scheib
paint shop. Taylor had them match the yellow and green colors of Nutra -
Bio, the vitamin company that sponsored "The Bob Cummings Show." The Aerocar
thereafter was a regular on that show in the early 1960s.
