A prototype of a futuristic aircraft developed by a South African is taking to the skies in the upcoming Hollywood blockbuster “The Lost City”.

An avid aeronautic scholar, Dr Reza Mia, is credited for conceptualising the Pegasus Vertical Business Jet in the action-packed flick.

The pioneer is also the founder and CEO of Pegasus Universal Aerospace.

A spokesperson says the prototype is featured predominantly in the picture that stars Sandra Bullock, Brad Pitt, Tatum Channing and Daniel Radcliffe.

Dr Reza says it’s a milestone for South Africa and a beacon for innovation.

The prototype will be displayed in Johannesburg when the movie is launched globally in March.
