An interesting article from space.com :

http://www.space.com/businesstechnol...ed_040818.html

I can't imagine myself ever using such a vehicle, even if one could be
made for the masses. Why risk your life when you could be safer on the
ground?


I'm not sure about safer on the ground, But the whole concept gives me the
willies. I don't trust a robot to fly, and most drivers can't handle a car
properly, let alone an aircraft.



The credibility of the whole thing went into the can when I got to
the last few paragraphs of the article. They mention and quote Moller,
as if he was developing a workable flying machine. More suckers lining
up...
