Its simply a light coloured car parked alongside a dark coloured car. Look closely, you can see both the front and rear windscreens.

Sorry C,
that is no billboard. Pictures of that area show nothing but grass in that area. Try again.

I am very sure, it is a Kite start.
Look at the beach in the North, it is full of Kites.
Somebody is testing his Kite before he is going to fly, or to dry the Kite after the flight.
Some groundpictures in the following link are showing just sand and dust there.

I live only a few hundred metres from the location of this spectacular image near Pt Walter,in the Perth suburb of Bicton. There has never been a billboard in that area (though there is an information board with history of the area, a few metres away); usually it

that rocks! how can i convert my mustang into a flying mustang!

I wonder if it's something that Google Earth might have drawn in, just for fun or to check for people illegally copying their images?

Here in Australia, particularly downtown Bicton, we have plenty of kangaroos wandering the neighbourhood. All your theories are good ones but the real answer is that a giant kangaroo has been cornered in a shed without a floor and has escaped by bouncing away with it. Kangaroos can reach heights of 5m above the ground, so i can imagine that with a shed on it's head it could still manage about 4m or 12ft.

Yes I know all about the flying car,, It was designed to run on LP Gas, however the new owner inadvertently filled it with Helium Gas with startling results, as shown in the picture, if you look closely you can see the broken bowser hose still attached.

why would a black and white car park on the grass there? There are plenty of spare spaces in the carpark.

Croc Dundee: you wish!! there are no kangaroo's in Bicton. And there is no 'downtown Bicton' either.

As for why the cars didn't park in the carpark when there are plenty of space there: who knows!! but cars park there all the time so it's not out of the ordinary.

Easy one, guys...

When I lived in the Midwestern USA, we used to have a lot of junk yards and small-town car lots that used cars perched on metal poles 20 to 30ft high.

They used them as advertising signs.

From overhead, this would cause the "flying car" look.....

Okay, living only a few kms from where this supposed flying car is, I decided to check it out, and there is nothing there that can explain it. There is no car on a pole, neither is there any explanation for why there appears to be a floating car in the picture.
It appeared in the newspaper the other day, but they could offer no explanation for it.

The flying car site has been photographed and documented. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/01/25/flying_car_launch_site/

A direct link is now available. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/01/23/flying_car.kmz

Continue theorising please =)

Here is what the object really is. The following was provided to me by a geologist colleague who lives in Perth. He takes his boat on the Swan River and has seen this "object" several times.

Quote: "The image is of a water tank on a stand which is about 20-ft tall.

The image at: <http://www.hgfa.asn.au/~hgawa/sites/perth/slides/mossie-morgan.html> may give you an idea of what the flying car could be - it shows a paraglider with Point Walter (where the flying car is) in the background.

You see other cars around so people must also be there. If this were a flying car, don't you think those people would have seen it and we would have a better picture than this obscure, ambiguous picture from space, not to mention good old fashion eye witness accounts? I think it's probably an awning propped up on poles, but it definitely is NOT a flying car.

Hi, sorry for my english, I found a airplane flying over Buenos Aires city 32

I live in Perth - only about 25 mins to Bicton and dive there all the time - I will try to find this and verify it.

From The Register's article, the object no longer exists there today.

THE BLACK SPOT IS A SHADOW, NOT A BLACK CAR. From the Google Map, the black spot matches the shadows of the trees, look at the free-standing trees South East of the object (you have to look on Google Map, not the small section of the map shown in this article). The SHADOW is cast at exactly the same angle as the shadows cast by the trees, and about the same height. Folks, the REAL question is, what did the Billboard say? "Enjoy a Fosters"? Why don't we contact the Perth local government to find out what structure would've been licensened or permit given for that location.

I work near the Nedlands Foreshore and I see Kite-Surfers beside the waters edge on many afternoons. My guess is that its a kite surfer testing or drying his kite near his car.

New 'hovering car' spotted, http://www.smh.com.au/news/breaking/new-hovering-car-mystery/2006/03/22/1142703405857.html

That second one doesn't look as convincing as the first.

It's aliens, man. Aliens.

the flying car, may just be a lie. you would easly have a black car next to it as its shadow

I have an idea! I'll go to Australia, rent a dark black car, cover the windows in a non-reflective tarp, and park next to another car making sure to align my black car exactly with the sun so the other objects' shadows are matched perfectly. Then I'll just call my good freinds at Google Maps and tell them to align their satellites to take another snapshot of the same location! Who's with me?

its a black and white car parked next to each other. when you compare this white car to the other cars in the parking lot, they're generally the same length and width. besides, Honda isn't releasing any flying cars until June 2007.

I found it! on my google earth, i located this so called "flying car." If anybody would like to see it and the surrounding area on their google earth, feel free to contact me at b***@aol.com and I will give you the latitude and longitude coordinates.

Duh... It's Harry Potter gone out for a joy ride. Geez...

It is flying. To go to it just type

32
