A new way to get around

[Guest BluesLover]

Isn't this a neat way to get around town? No more traffic jams!

Think I'll get me one of those. Traffic here is horendous sometimes, maybe even 3 cars a day going by. Hey Lou, want to make a loan??

We are getting one, oh yeah let the air wheelies begin.

Carl - you gotta watch out for that Portuguese Mafia you know ... our loansharks are likely to beat you down with some codfish and all ...

Now that would be doubly satisfying: I get to ride a bike and I get to fly!

 

I'll be interested to see what the market is like on those about three years after they come out. If I start saving now I should be able to handle getting a used one by then...

practically, its unrealistic given today's airspace rules. Where you have the most need for a vehicle like that is where you have traffic jams. Where you have traffic jams you have big cities. Big cities have international airports. Those airports demand very strict rules for transiting aircraft and practically no airspace for a "fly-drive" vehicle like that...and you can totally forget about using the interstate as a takeoff runway as you approach the traffic jam. Sorry to be the party pooper on this idea.

In other news, the Oshkosh crowd really likes this design...

I saw the SkyCycle at the '06 Sun-N-Fun in Florida. It's pretty cool, but it looked like it would be a little scary @ 70mph on the ground! In the air it would be great though!
