Moller hits the UK

He's at it again. Now he's convinced the BBC. I suppose it's not
surprising as media organizations are dominated by people who aren't
good at the practical stuff.

Pleas feel free to contact the BBC and tell then what's wrong with the
article.

I love this quote,

"Cars are finished as a means of getting around. It's only a matter of
time"

Moller has said that if his vehicle is limited by an autopilot to 10 feet
agl then its a ground effect machine and no pilots licenced is required.
That's a great idea! I'm going to buy a bunch of surplus CH-47s, install
one of these 10 foot autopilots and market them to non-pilots. No
certification required! The man's a fraud.

I like this:

"Dr Moller and his team have already conducted more than 200 test
flights and say the flying saucer could prove useful to rescue teams
as well as landowners. "

The reporter must be blind not to have seen the tether. The 200
figure is also suspicious.

Does lifting it on a hoist count as a test flight?

Yes. They tested it 200 times. It refused to fly each and ever time.

I've done my part and written the authors of the story. Has everyone else
out there?

The article was edited at 1027 zulu today. It now includes reference to
his run-in with the Securities Exchange Commission, and has a much lower
profile on the website. I wonder how that happened.
