Vulcan desert flyer
The Vulcan desert flyer was a common sight in and around Vulcan cities during the 2230s. Its primary use was for personal transport and it was related to the hovercar.
In 2237, Spock and a Vulcan healer traveled in a desert flyer to the site in the L-langon Mountains where Spock's ailing sehlat I-Chaya lay. (TAS: "Yesteryear")
When writing the script of "Yesteryear", D.C. Fontana asked that the desert flyer be "not saucer shaped, please." The script also described the craft as "a streamlined skimmer" and "large enough to carry several passengers".
