What happens to a flying car after a fender-bender? More efficient to buy a fleet of cars to stash at airports.

When I consider the number of morons I encounter daily who can’t handle navigation in two dimensions, I get queasy considering their skill with three.

The design sort of limits conversation.

A roadable aircraft is not a flying car. Any idiot can put beefier tires on an ultralight.

AirScooter II, Moller M400, Springtail EFV, PAL-V... These are all real commuter light aircraft that real people could really commute with. For real. Really...

Burt's offering is no better than the Terrafugia that recently made some headlines.

If you can't park it in a Target/Wal-Mart parking lot, it isn't going to take off in the general marketplace.
