Some people think this could be Larry Page's flying car
Did someone just spot Google co-founder Larry Page's flying car?
A photo of a mysterious-looking vehicle at the airport in Hollister, California, has been the subject plenty of speculation lately.
Page's start-up Zee.Aero has a hangar at the airport, where it's apparently developing and testing what it calls "a revolutionary new form of transportation."

The San Jose Mercury News got its hands on the image, taken by an employee who works at the Hollister Airport.
The man who snapped the photo of the vehicle, Steve Eggleston, said, “It sounded like an electric motor running, just a high-pitched whine."
Another witness claimed the vehicle was "just hovering."
Jalopnik notes that the vehicle snapped in the photo looks a lot like a vehicle detailed in patent documents that the secretive Zee.Aero previously filed in 2011.
Mashable has reached out to both the employee who took the original photo and Zee.Aero for further comment.
